. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Although Luis Aparicio hit the second grand-slam homer of his major league career and drove in two more runs with a double, the Red Sox lost a slugfest to the Indians, 11-10. Ray Fosse batted in two runs for the Indians with a homer and Larry Brown accounted for five RBIs with a grounder, a double and a single. Rookie Chuck Machemehl saved the game after relieving with the potential tying run on third and one out in the eighth inning. [The Sporting News]
