Wednesday July 19, 1978
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A two-out single by Frank Duffy capped a four-run seventh inning as the Red Sox came from behind to down the Brewers, 8-2. The Sox trailed, 2-0, going into the seventh when Jim Rice and Carl Yastrzemski opened with singles. Rice scored when Carlton Fisk bounced into a fielder's choice at second base.

With two out, singles by George Scott and Butch Hobson tied the game at 2-2. Duffy then singled home Scott on a disputed play at the plate and Hobson scored when catcher Charlie Moore dropped the ball to argue the call on Scott. Fisk slammed a three-run homer to climax a four-run Sox rally in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
