Sunday May 16, 1982
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Combining on a five-hitter, Dennis Leonard and Dan Quisenberry pitched the Royals to a 5-0 blanking of the Red Sox. Amos Otis doubled home a K.C. run in the first inning and the Royals picked up two more in the second on a double by Greg Pryor and John Wathan's infield single. A single by Wathan drove in a fourth-inning run and Frank White's single delivered the final run in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
