The Red Sox rapped four homers, including three in one inning, to support the pitching of Sonny Siebert, who allowed only two hits and beat the Indians, 5-1. Billy Conigliaro started the Boston barrage in the fourth. Ray Fosse tied the score with a homer for the first hit off Siebert in the seventh. In the Red Sox half, Mike Andrews and Reggie Smith homered on successive pitches by Steve Dunning. After Mike Fiore singled, Fred Lasher relieved and was tagged for a circuit clout by Tony Conigliaro. [The Sporting News]
