Sunday May 18, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Dan Spillner and Sid Monge combined on a four-hitter as the Indians defeated the Red Sox, 3-1. The Indians scored a run in the third inning when Miguel Dilone legged out an infield hit, took third on pitcher Bob Stanley's wild pickoff attempt and came home on a double by Duane Kuiper.

Dilone doubled in the fifth and tallied on a single by Mike Hargrove. A sacrifice fly by Cliff Johnson following a triple by Ron Hassey gave the Indians their final marker in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
