Allowing only three hits in 8 2/3 innings, Tommy John picked up his 19th victory as the Yankees downed the Indians, 2-0. John was removed from the game in favor of Ron Davis after being struck on the knee by Toby Harrah's ground single in the ninth. Reggie Jackson clouted a homer in the second and the Yankees added their other run in the seventh on a bases-loaded walk issued by Rick Wise, who was the loser on a four-hitter.
