Bill Travers tossed a four-hitter for his first victory since April 28, and the Brewers scored two unearned runs in the seventh inning to defeat the Indians, 4-3. The decisive rally started when Frank Duffy booted Bobby Darwin's grounder. After a pinch single by Bill Sharp, Tim Johnson and Robin Yount hit RBI singles. A single by Darrell Porter and homer by Sixto Lezcano scored the first two Brewer runs. [The Sporting News]
