With Andy Messersmith and Rawly Eastwick combining on a one-hitter, the Yankees whitewashed the Indians, 2-0. Messersmith, making his first appearance of this season and first since July 3, 1977, yielded a single in the first inning and then stifled the Tribe until leaving the game. He had been sidelined since spring training because of a shoulder separation.
