Homers by Tony Conigliaro and Mike Andrews provided the Red Sox with a 2-1 victory over the Athletics. Bill Lee held the A's to one hit until they broke through with their run in the eighth inning on two-out singles by Frank Fernandez, Roberto Pena and Bert Campaneris. Ray Jarvis finished the inning and Sparky Lyle set down the A's in the ninth to earn his fourth save. [The Sporting News]
