Brewers backs against the wall, WPK World Series 1971, Game 3

In spite of a fine performance by Harry Lyerly- his best post-season start yet- the Brewers drop Game 3 of the WPK World Series and are on the verge of elimination.
Lyerly worked 7 innings, giving up just 1 run on 2 hits, striking out 6 and walking 2. But the Brewers bats remain dormant and the bullpen beatable.
The Brewers scored their 2 runs on an 8th inning 2-run homer off the bat of secondbaseman Danny Roman, who had only 3 HR's in his 274 regular season plate appearances. The blow put the Brewers on top 2-1, but closer Eric Singer was unable to hold that lead as he allowed the Night Train to score a pair of runs in the bottom of the frame and they held on to take the game 3-2.
