Although knocked out in the eighth inning after giving up 14 hits, Fergie Jenkins received credit for the 200th victory of his career when the Red Sox outlasted the Indians, 8-7. The Red Sox scored all their runs in the first four frames, counting what proved to be the deciding tally in the fourth on a double by Fred Lynn, single by Carl Yastrzemski and forceout by Jim Rice.
