Friday July 21, 1978
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Hitting .186 coming into the game, Buck Martinez singled twice and drove in two runs as the Brewers edged the Rangers, 4-3. The first Brewer run came in the third when Don Money reached first on an error by shortstop Bert Campaneris, raced to third on a single by Ben Oglivie and scored on a single by Larry Hisle.

The Brewers added a pair in the fourth on a double by Gorman Thomas, triple by Sal Bando and single by Martinez. Martinez also had an RBI single in the sixth. Bob McClure relieved on the mound for Brewers in the ninth with runners on first and third and two out and struck out Mike Hargrove. [The Sporting News]
