Sam McDowell Shines As Indians Beat A's 3 1
New pitching form from Sam McDowell powers Cleveland to a 3-1 victory over Oakland. He fans 16 and walks none in a nine inning gem, using a mix of curves sliders changeups and fastballs for a season high strikeout total. Oakland’s John Odom yields the only Indians run in the sixth on McDowell’s RBI single, Chico Salmon scoring on a fielder’s choice. Other AL and NL results noted include Detroit over Minnesota 2 1 and St Louis 3 1 over Houston in twelve innings.
