Sunday June 7, 1981
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Pushing across a run in the 11th inning, the Mariners edged the Indians, 5-4. With one out in the 11th, Julio Cruz extended his batting streak to 10 games with a single and stole second. After Lenny Randle received an intentional pass, Tom Paciorek delivered a single to plate Cruz. The Tribe had rallied to tie the game in the ninth on a two-run pinch-single by Ron Hassey.

Cruz tied a major league fielding record for most chances in a nine-inning game with 18 and also had another chance in extra innings, leaving him one short of the mark for most chances in an extra inning contest. Cruz shares the nine-inning record with Terry Harmon of the 1971 Phillies. [The Sporting News]
