With Rick Wise pitching a shutout, the Indians defeated Ron Guidry and won the first game of a doubleheader, 5-0, but the Yankees came back to take the second game, 5-4, on a pinch-homer by Lou Piniella in the eighth inning. In the opener, Guidry gave up four hits and three runs, two earned, before leaving the game after five innings with a slight hamstring pull in his left leg. The defeat was the fourth for the Yankee lefthander, one more than he incurred all of last season when his record was 25-3. Paul Dade had three hits for the Indians, including his first homer of the season, plus a sacrifice fly, and drove in three runs.
