Although suffering from a stretched Achilles tendon, old pro Carl Yastrzemski remained in the Red Sox lineup and rapped three hits, including a homer in the ninth inning that beat the Yankees, 3-2. Bob Watson also had three hits for the Red Sox and drove in their first two runs in the second with a single after Jim Rice singled and Yastrzemski doubled.
