While Lary Sorensen notched his 11th victory with a seven-hit shutout, the Brewers made the most of five hits off Paul Mitchell and defeated the Mariners, 4-0. Singles by Larry Hisle and Sixto Lezcano around a walk to Ben Oglivie produced the Brewers' initial run in the second inning. Lezcano made it 2-0 with a homer in the seventh before the Brewers went on to add two more tallies, both unearned, in the same stanza. [The Sporting News]
