The Cleveland Indians won by the slimmest of margins, 6 to 5. Cleveland jumped out to the early lead in the first inning as they scored 2 runs on 2 base hits. The crucial at-bat was provided by Jeff Heath who came through for the home fans when he bombed a two-run dinger. Cleveland finished with 10 hits in the victory. The winning pitcher was Mike Garcia(14-4) who allowed 3 runs in 6 innings. Gerry Staley gained credit for his 7th save. Vic Raschi(16-6) was hit with the loss. 'I didn't have my best stuff but sometimes you just get lucky,' Garcia said, 'this was one of those times.'
