The Senators were held to only three hits, but they included a homer by Ed Stroud with two men on base to beat the Indians, 3-1. Stroud's smash off Barry Moore followed a double by Rick Reichardt and a walk to Wayne Comer in the fourth inning. Vada Pinson homered in the third for the Indians' run off Joe Coleman, who pitched a five-hitter. [The Sporting News]
