Scattering eight hits, Len Barker breezed to victory as the Indians pounded the Rangers, 13-1. The Tribe scored in the third inning on a two-run single by Toby Harrah and tallied four times in the fourth on an RBI triple by Jack Perconte, run-scoring single by Jerry Dybzinski, Harrah's single and a wild pitch. Harrah picked up his fourth RBI of the game with a fifth-inning single. [The Sporting News]
