The Indians took a pair of cliffhangers from the Orioles, 8-7 and 5-4, but it took 13 innings before pinch-hitter Tommy McCraw's single drove home John Ellis with the deciding tally in the second game. After the Tribe sent the contest into extra innings on Buddy Bell's two-run ninth inning homer, the Orioles took the lead in the top of the 13th on Rich Coggins' run-scoring single off Tom Hilgendorf. In the home half of the frame, with one out, singles by Charlie Spikes and Ellis chased reliever Bob Reynolds in favor of Grant Jackson, who walked Leron Lee and Joe Lis, forcing in the tying run. Doyle Alexander relieved Jackson and McCraw sent home the winning tally when he slapped a drive over the drawn-in outfield.
