The post-game news confer ence contained some bitter mo ments. “Don can have any position he would like in our organiza tion,” Chiles said. Zimmer said: “I’d like to manage Friday night (the Ran gers’ next game).” Chiles said: “Well I think Don would actually like to relax and play golf on Friday. He has had a hard time the last few days.” Zimmer, without a smile, shot back: “No. I’d like to manage Friday night.” During the Brewer victory, catcher Ted Simmons lifted a sacrifice fly with one out in the eighth inning and Bob McClure and Rollie Fingers combined on a five-hitter to lead Milwaukee. With the score tied 2-2, Paul Molitor led off the Milwaukee eighth with a single to left and went to second on a single by Robin Yount. Both runners moved up on a sacrifice and Molitor scored when Simmons followed with a sacrifice fly to left off loser Frank Tanana. McClure, 8-3, struck out five and walked five. Fingers pitched the final two innings for his 22nd save.
