In a game for the baseball purist, Mike Garcia(15-5) and Fred Hutchinson(10-9)
squared off in a tense pitching duel, amazing Cleveland Indians finally
emerged victorious over Boston Red Sox, 2 to 0.
Cleveland scored 2 runs in the decisive bottom of the 2nd inning. That was
all the offense they were to need. The pitchers took over after the 2nd
inning as neither team was able to score again.
Gerry Staley got the save, his 8th.
