. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Rick Waits pitched the first six innings and Jim Bibby finished as the Indians shut out the White Sox, 3-0, although the Tribe's two pitchers yielded 11 hits between them. The Indians collected only nine. Frank Duffy, who had just three RBIs to his credit since May 13, woke up and drove in two of the Indians' runs, one on a bunt single and another on a sacrifice fly.
