Red Sox 4, Indians 3 (15-17)
The Red Sox rallied and scored four runs in the bottom of the eighth inning to come back and beat the Indians. Carl Yastrzemski tripled home two runs to pull the Red Sox to within one run and then George Scott hit a big two run homer to give the Red Sox the win.
Billy Rohr had a pretty good start that almost went to waste. He gave up three runs (one earned) on four hits and two walks with one strikeout in 7 1/3 innings. John Wyatt picked up the win and he got the final two batters out in the ninth. Lee Stange picked up the save with a shutout ninth.
