Hitless in 13 previous times at bat, Sal Bando smashed his slump with a homer in the 12th inning to beat the Indians, 4-3 and extend the Brewers' winning streak to 10 games.

The Indians, who lost their fifth in a row, scored all their runs in the second after loading the bases on singles by Andre Thornton, Gary Alexander and Willie Horton. One run scored on a fielder's choice grounder by Johnny Grubb, another on a single by Duane Kuiper and the third on a sacrifice fly by Tom Veryzer. The Brewers picked up an unearned run in the fifth and tied the score when Gorman Thomas homered with a man on base in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
