April 13-15, 1972, versus Portland

The opening home stand continues with 2 games against the Portland Wild Things.

In game 1, Harry Lyerly isn't particularly sharp- especially early on- but the team gave him great run support and he settled down enough to get his first win of the season. Lyerly allowed 3 runs on 6 hits while striking out 8 and walking 4 in 6 innings pitched. Matt Helm pitched a fine 3 innings to pick up the save.

The Brewers suffer their first loss of the season in the second game of the series in spite of mounting a bottom of the 9th inning comeback attempt that nearly succeeded. Daniel Torres struggled in his first start of the season, allowing 5 runs on 9 hits in 5 1/3rd innings pitched. The Brewers scored 3 runs in the bottom of the 9th to get within one run of the Wild Things, but unfortunately Andrew Kennedy struck out with the bases loaded to end the game.
