A three-run double by Buddy Bell in the seventh inning escorted the Indians to a 5-1 victory over the Twins. The Indians had a 2-1 lead, the Twins' run coming on a homer by Rich Reese, before Bell delivered his clinching blow after a double by Ray Fosse, single by Del Unser and intentional pass to Tommy McCraw had loaded the bases.
