Thursday June 26, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Carlton Fisk, catching in only his fourth game since fracturing his arm in spring training, hit his first homer since June 17, 1974, and Fred Lynn drove in three runs with a triple and single as the Red Sox defeated the Yankees, 6-1. Lynn accounted for two RBIs with his triple in the fourth inning and scored himself on a single by Cecil Cooper. Fisk homered in the seventh and two more runs followed in the same stanza on singles by Denny Doyle, Rick Miller, Rick Burleson and Lynn. [The Sporting News]
