Coming off the ropes, Gaylord Perry avoided a knockout in the second inning and pitched the Indians to a 10-5 victory over the Yankees. Perry was tagged for four runs on five hits in his shaky stanza, including a two-run triple by Gene Michael. The only Yankee run thereafter came on a homer by Thurman Munson in the fourth.
