Kansas City hitters exploded for 21 hits and 12 runs in five innings, backing Larry Guta with five strong frames. Hal McRae drove in five, Willie Wilson four, Frank White three, including Wilson's inside-the-park homer. Milwaukee starter Pete Vuckovich left with an ankle injury and reliever Jerry Augustine gave up five earned runs in his first start since May 1831. Don Money drove in all three Brewers runs.

Royals Stadium Music Man Orchestrates KC Drama
Kansas City Royals stadium music program, led by Rush Limbaugh, uses organ and taped segments to heighten game atmosphere. Rick Janssen is the new organist, while Limbaugh directs what plays, aiming to entertain without intruding on the sport. Players, including George Brett, react with mixed but largely positive sentiment as the experiment continues.

Pimlico GM Raps Gregson Over Triple Crown Shots
Pimlico Race Course manager Chick Lang accuses Eddie Gregson of fearing Linkage and lacking respect for the Triple Crown as Kentucky Derby winner Gato Del Sol is kept out of the Preakness. Lang defends Linkage as the best 3-year-old in America, notes Derby starters Cupecoy's Joy and Bold Style, and criticizes Gregson's reasoning as weak and media-driven.
