The Indians and White Sox split a doubleheader, the Tribe winning the lidlifter, 4-2, behind the three-hit pitching of Len Barker, and the Pale Hose capturing the nightcap, 7-2, as a three-run homer by Kevin Bell climaxed a six-run fourth inning. In the first game, the Indians opened a 2-0 lead in the third inning on a single by Jerry Dybzinski, a stolen base, RBI triple by Jorge Orta and RBI double by Mike Hargrove. Toby Harrah drilled a solo homer in the fifth and the Tribe picked up another marker in the eighth on a sacrifice fly by Dybzinski.

In the second game, run-scoring singles by Wayne Nordhagen, Bob Molinaro and Glenn Borgmann preceded Bell's round-tripper. [The Sporting News]
