Halting, at least temporarily, New York's drive toward the East division title, Mike Caldwell fired a four-hitter to win his 20th game of the season as the Brewers blanked the Yankees, 2-0. It was the southpaw's 22nd complete game and sixth shutout of the campaign. The Brewers' runs came on a double by Robin Yount and single by Don Money in the third inning and a home run by Yount in the fifth. [The Sporting News]
