Erupting for six runs, the Indians knocked out Fergie Jenkins in the sixth inning and defeated the Red Sox, 6-5. The Indians went into the stanza trailing, 4-0, but put together five hits, two walks and a balk. After the balk by Jenkins forced in the tying run, Alan Ashby singled for two RBIs to account for the Indians' victory. [The Sporting News]
