Wednesday July 30, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
The Brewers, who forged ahead with a pair of unearned runs in the seventh inning, clinched a 6-2 victory over the Red Sox when Sixto Lezcano homered with two men on base in the eighth. In the seventh, a single by Bill Sharp, forceout by Mike Hegan and double by Robin Yount set the stage for the tainted tallies on an error by Bob Heise and single by Don Money, breaking a 1-1 tie. Dwight Evans homered for the Red Sox in their half, but singles by George Scott and Hank Aaron and Lezcano's round-tripper iced the matter for the Brewers in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
