An opposite-field, three-run, fifth-inning homer by Dwight Evans gave the Red Sox a 4-1 decision over the Athletics and enabled Luis Tiant to score a sixth straight complete-game victory. Vida Blue, who suffered his sixth loss in 11 decisions, also went the route. In the big frame, Carlton Fisk walked and scored on singles by Carl Yastrzemski and Rico Petrocelli. Evans' 320-foot blow into the right field stands on an outside pitch followed.
