With two out in the first inning, the Red Sox exploded for five runs on two homers and went on from there to defeat the Yankees, 10-0. Reggie Smith singled, Carl Yastrzemski walked and Orlando Cepeda connected for the circuit off Steve Kline, who made his first start for the Yankees since June 24. Rico Petrocelli walked and Carlton Fisk then greeted reliever Doc Medich with another round-tripper.
