Friday August 22, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Roger Moret, though giving up nine walks, pitched a four-hit, 2-1 win over the White Sox. Dwight Evans' homer gave the Red Sox one run in the fifth and Fred Lynn singled for the second Boston tally in the sixth.

Car Yastrzemski singled, stole second and reached third on White Sox catcher Brian Downing's throwing error in the sixth. Yaz scored as Lynn punched a grounder through the drawn-in infield. Claude Osteen pitched a six-hitter in taking his 12th loss. [The Sporting News]
