Continuing his torrid slugging, Carl Yastrzemski smashed two homers, giving him five in two consecutive games to tie the major league record, as the Red Sox defeated the Yankees, 8-2. Only two other American leaguers -- Ty Cobb in 1925 and Tony Lazzeri in 1936 -- had previously accomplished the feat.
