The Red Sox took over first place in the A. L. East, blanking the Indians, 3-0, as Rick Wise hurled his second shutout of the season and Butch Hobson extended his hitting streak to 16 games. All Bosox runs came in the opening canto. Rick Burleson led off with a single and Carl Yastrzemski walked after two were out. Carlton Fisk's single produced one run and after George Scott walked to load the bases, Hobson lined a double off the left field wall.
