. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Jack Brohamer delivered the Red Sox' first successful pinch-hit this season, coming through with a single in the 11th inning to score Carlton Fisk and beat the Royals, 6-5. Fisk doubled and moved up on a sacrifice before Brohamer snapped a string of eight straight outs by Red Sox pinch-batters. [The Sporting News]
