Homers by George Scott and Bobby Darwin helped the Brewers score six runs in the fourth inning to gain a 9-6 victory in the day game before the Red Sox came back to win the night game, 6-3. With the Red Sox leading, 2-1, Scott hit his homer to ignite the Brewers' explosion. Darrell Porter singled and scored on a double by Charlie Moore before Darwin rapped his round-tripper to kayo Rick Wise. The Brewers then added two more runs off Dick Drago on a single by Robin Yount and doubles by Don Money and Bill Sharp.

The situation was somewhat reversed in the night game with the Brewers leading, 2-1, before the Red Sox took command with three runs in the fourth inning on a single by Carlton Fisk, double by Rico Petrocelli, triple by Bob Montgomery and single by Doug Griffin. Montgomery helped ice the verdict with a homer in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
