Saturday April 22, 1978
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Batting for the first time this season, Fred Stanley singled in the 12th inning and came around to score on singles by Mickey Rivers and Roy White to bring the Yankees a 4-3 victory over the Brewers. Paul Molitor homered for the Brewers in the 10th, but the Yankees averted defeat in their half with the tying run on singles by Graig Nettles and Thurman Munson and a sacrifice fly by Willie Randolph. Munson batted for Bucky Dent, paving the way for the entrance of Stanley into the Yankees' lineup at shortstop. [The Sporting News]
