Wednesday May 23, 1979
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Notching his second straight shutout, Bill Travers pitched the Brewers to a 1-0 victory over the Angels. The only run of the game came across on a wild pitch in the seventh inning. After a two-out single by Paul Molitor, infield hit by Sal Bando and walk to Gorman Thomas loaded the sacks, Angel hurler Don Aase then threw a wild pitch to pinch-hitter Charlie Moore, allowing Molitor to score.
