Fired as manager of the Brewers two hours before the game, Del Crandall was not in uniform to see Larry Anderson pitch a five-hitter and beat the Tigers, 7-0, for his first major league victory. Coach Harvey Kuenn directed the Brewers for the final game of the season. Darrell Porter, who caught Anderson, backed the young righthander with a homer and triple, driving in three runs.
