Cleveland Indians ride defense to surge amid Perry slump
The Cleveland Indians, led by Dick Tidrow and Buddy Bell, rally as Gaylord Perry falters in three straight starts. Despite a rough patch, Cleveland sits closer to the pennant than in a decade after an Aug. 15 win to reach 52-38. The piece credits defense, including a game in Detroit where Jack Brohamer turned a bases loaded danger into a double play, with eyes on sustained infield strength and potential future contention. Also notes Walt Rock’s NFL honor and a correction about 1952 season player Dale Mitchell.
