April 29, 1967 at Fenway Park
Red Sox 11 (8-5), Athletics 10
The Red Sox won their fourth straight in a crazy game at Fenway Park. The game had some pretty big swings that saw the Athletics take a three run lead in the top of the third but then they were down by three in the bottom of the third. The Red Sox eventually blew a four run lead and the game finally calmed down in the later innings. Finally in the fifteenth, the A’s scored a run to take the lead but a two run single with the bases loaded by Jose Tartabull gave the Red Sox the win.
George Scott and Tony Conigliaro had big games for the Red Sox. Scott went three for six with two RBIs and three runs while Conigliaro went three for seven with an RBI and three runs.
Billy Rohr was hit hard and he was credited with only three innings of work. Lee Stange was also knocked around in relief of Rohr. Don McMahon picked up the win despite giving up the go ahead run in the top of the fifteenth but that was the only run he gave up in three innings of work. You also have to give some credit to John Wyatt. He threw 5 2/3 shutout innings after Stange gave up the big lead.
