A sacrifice fly and a pass with the bases loaded produced two runs in the 12th inning and gave the Indians a 7-5 victory over the Blue Jays. Frank Duffy walked to lead off and, after a sacrifice, stopped at third on a single by Paul Dade. Jim Norris followed with a sacrifice fly, sending Duffy home with the tie-breaking tally. Rico Carty singled and Johnny Grubb walked to load the bases. Tom Bruno then replaced Jerry Johnson and passed Buddy Bell on four pitches to force in the Indians' insurance run.
