Friday April 16, 1982
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Vida Blue and Dan Quisenberry combined to stifle the Indians on four hits as the Royals prevailed, 3-1. K.C. broke a 1-1 tie in the seventh when Lee May opened with an infield hit and, after two outs, scored on a triple by U.L. Washington. The Royals added an insurance marker in the eighth on an RBI forceout by Hal McRae. [The Sporting News]
