Although lifted in the sixth inning, Steve Kline was able to end his personal seven-game losing streak when the Indians defeated the Royals, 8-6. Leron Lee batted in two runs with a pair of singles and Oscar Gamble hit a homer to help stake Kline to a 6-4 lead before Fred Beene relieved with a man on base and none out in the sixth. A double by George Hendrick and homer by Dave Duncan then provided the Indians with their winning margin in the seventh. Beene, who allowed only three hits in three innings, gave up two unearned runs in the eighth. Milt Wilcox took over in the ninth and retired the Royals in order.
