Red Sox must sharpen brains and focus to repeat in 76
Boston battles to keep pace with the Yankees as slips in defense and hitting haunt the club. Captain Carl Yastrzemski urges concentrated effort on every play after a 6 4 win over the Minnesota Twins at Fenway Park. Ferguson Jenkins earned the win, Dale Lynn hit a homer, and Denny Doyle drove in two runs to prop up Boston's 5 2 lead.

The man who couldn't win pennants
Tom Yawkey, Boston Red Sox owner and lifelong baseball enthusiast, died Friday. Renowned for loving the game over profit, he avoided league pomp, enjoyed hunting and fishing with players, and once even hit line drives off Fenway Park’s left field wall. His liberality sparked both loyalty and criticism among peers accustomed to a cutthroat business.
