Yankees 7, Red Sox 6  (2-3)

The Red Sox lost the series finale and the series to the arch rival Yankees in an eighteen inning nail biter.  The Red Sox tied the game up in the top of the ninth to send the game into extra frames and then neither team scored for the next seven innings.  Finally in the bottom of the eighteenth, Joe Pepitone singled home Jake Gibbs off of Lee Stange to end the game.

Carl Yastrzemski and Tony Conigliaro both had big games for the Red Sox.  Yaz wen five for eight with two triples, two runs and an RBI while Conigiliaro had five hits and three RBIs.

Jim Lonborg lasted five innings before yielding to the pen.  Dan Osinski was the most impressive.  He pitched six shutout innings from the ninth inning on to keep the Red Sox in the game.
