| 5/2 Cle- KC suffers from having no closer-Moe is tired and Ken Wright fails to hold a 2 run lead in 9th pitching tired most of ing- no other closer ready- KC fought back and tied it nearly won it- Hedlund in and he had nothing -AO triple brings it to -1 and Tribes last pitcher was tired a LH but Big Bozo Bob Oliver can't make the drama write itself. |

20,727 fans watched an exciting game at Municipal Stadium. The Cleveland
Indians topped the Kansas City Royals by the slimmest of margins, 9 to
8.
The score was knotted at 7 after nine innings. Cleveland won it in the 10th
inning. Vada Pinson led off and he smacked a single. Tony Horton stepped up
to the plate and he cleared the fences for a two-run home run (his 1st of the
season). Cleveland totaled 12 on the night.
Mike Paul(1-1) got credit for the victory, pitching 1/3 of an inning and
allowing no runs. Paul got relief help from Rick Austin who gained credit for
his 1st save. Mike Hedlund(0-1) suffered the loss in relief.
