Milt Wilcox pitched a four-hitter and also beat out a bunt to lead the way to the Indians' 3-1 victory over the Royals. The score was tied, 1-1, when Wilcox reached base on his bunt in the eighth inning. Del Unser also bunted safely. After a sacrifice by Jack Brohamer, Roy Foster hit a sacrifice fly to score Wilcox and Tommy McCraw followed with a double to plate Unser.
