Oscar Gamble and Bobby Murcer each cracked two-run homers to trigger the Yankees to a 10-6 decision over the Red Sox as Ron Guidry received credit for his ninth consecutive victory. Gamble's round-tripper came in the first inning and Murcer's circuit clout came in the second frame. The Yanks put the game away with four runs in the eighth on an RBI double by Brad Gulden, squeeze by Murcer, run-scoring triple by Willie Randolph and RBI single by Juan Beniquez.
