Making his first start since September 29, 1971, Grant Jackson allowed only four hits in seven innings and gained credit for the Yankees' 8-2 victory over the Indians. Roy White, batting at a .500 clip during an eight-game streak, stroked four hits and scored three runs to lead the Yankees' attack. [The Sporting News]
