Rico Petrocelli and Cecil Cooper batted in seven runs between them to lead the Red Sox to a 14-6 victory over the Yankees. Petrocelli rapped a homer and double, while Cooper collected four singles. Petrocelli's homer in the second inning ignited a four-run outburst by the Red Sox, with other runs following on singles by Dwight Evans and Dick McAuliffe, a sacrifice and singles by Juan Beniquez and Cooper.
