Three walks in the 10th inning, plus a sacrifice fly by Danny Thompson, provided the Twins with a 7-6 victory over the Indians. George Hendrick scored the Indians' first run in the fourth, batted in another in the sixth and then homered with two men on base in the eighth for a 5-3 lead. However, the Twins came roaring back in their half of the eighth with successive circuit clouts by George Mitterwald, Joe Lis and Jim Holt. Buddy Bell singled and drove in the Indians' tying run in the ninth.
