Sox three to two

BOSTON (AP) — Light-
hitting Tim Nordbrook got a
pitt triple and scored the tie-

reaking run on- Bob

Bailor's infield hit in the

seventh inning Wednesday

night as Toronto Blue Jays

ed Boston Red Sox 3-2 in

an American League
baseball game.

The loss dealt a crippling
blow to the Red Sox faint
pennant hopes.

Nordbrook, who entered
the game with a .181
average, hit a 300-foot pop
fly which landed down the
right field line, just beyond
Jim Rice’s reach, to start
the seventh inning. Gary
Woods grounded out, but
Bailor got a seratch hit
against the drawn-in infield,

scoring Noi-dbrook.

Roy Howell drilled his
10th homer of the season and
helped set up Toronto’s
other run with a single as
the Blue Jays snapped
Boston’s five-game winning
streak.

Right-hander Pete
Vuckovich replaced starter
Jesse Jefferson in the
second inning and held the
Red Sox to seven hits and
two runs the rest of the way
in levelling his record at 7-7.
Southpaw Bill Lee, 9-5, was
the loser in going the
distance for the Red Sox.

Carl Yastrzemski scored
both Boston runs, the second
after he led off the sixth with
his 28th homer, a shot into
the centrefield bleachers.

"Watching Yanks win it all

games. But, with just five
games remaining on the
schedule, the Yankees
magic number for clinching
the East dropped to three.

“Nobody on this club has
any reason to look down,’
said Red Sox veteran Carl
Yastrzemski. “We've had a
great September (20-7) and
the Yankees. just had a
better one.

“EF wouldn’t mind losing a
pennant like this because we
didn’t Jose it, the other team
is winning it. We just have to
‘take our hats off to the
Yankees, They’ve done
what they had to do to be
ahead of us.”

The Red Sox, who have set
ali kinds of personal and
team records this season
and might win 100 games yet
finish third in their division,
haven’t exactly conceded
the pennant to New York.
But they are generous in
praising the Yankees.

“The Yankees have
layed some kind of
aseball,”’ said ace reliever
fil Campbeli, who collected
saveg in both games and has
a league-leading 31 for the
season. “We can win 100
games"—they have 95

victories — Wand still not
