Two homers by Bobby Mitchell and one by Darrell Porter powered the Brewers past the Yankees, 5-2, and enabled Jerry Augustine to gain a victory in the lefthander's first major league start. Mitchell homered with two men on base in the first inning. Then in the sixth, Mitchell and Porter hit for the circuit in succession. [The Sporting News]
