A six-run explosion in the third inning propelled the Red Sox to a 9-2 romp over the Yankees. Jerry Remy opened the third with a single and stole second. Jim Rice drew a walk and Carl Yastrzemski doubled to drive in Remy. Rice scored on a wild pitch by starter Jim Beattie. A double by Carlton Fisk plated Yastrzemski. Fisk moved to third on a wild pitch by reliever Dick Tidrow and scored on a sacrifice fly by Fred Lynn.
