Fred Lynn drove in four runs and Carl Yastrzemski collected five straight hits as the Red Sox defeated the Rangers, 7-5, for their seventh straight victory. Lynn knocked in one run with a double in the first inning and two more with another double in the third before adding his fourth RBI with a grounder in the fourth.

Rick Wise, although staked to a 7-0 lead, failed to last the route and the Red Sox had to call on relievers Bill Lee and Jim Willoughby to nail down their victory. Roy Howell homered for the Rangers. [The Sporting News]
