The only pass issued by Gaylord Perry led to the Indians' 1-0 loss to the Yankees. After matching Steve Kline in a scoreless duel, Perry walked Horace Clarke in the ninth inning. Following a sacrifice by Rusty Torres, Clarke took third on an infield out by Bobby Murcer and scored on a single by Roy White. [The Sporting News]
