. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Bernie Allen drove in four runs and Ken McMullen batted in three to account for all of the Senators' scoring in a 7-5 victory over the Yankees. Lee Maye crossed the plate four times after reaching base on two doubles and two singles. Allen hit a homer in the fifth inning after Maye doubled and Ken McMullen was safe on an error.
