Reggie Jackson and Bobby Brown knocked in two runs apiece and Rick Reuschel scattered nine hits to pace the Yankees to a 6-1 victory over the Indians. Jackson slammed a two-run homer in the fourth inning after being knocked down by John Denny two innings earlier, and the Yankee slugger was challenged by Denny as he circled the bases.
