...deliver an occasional pep talk to his troops. In a long, rambling report issued from Hanoi last week, he claimed that U.S. forces are suffering "resounding blows," "annihilation" and "heavy defeat." Ho, hum.

Dalton Jones pushed a single past Shannon, and Schoendinst trotted out to greet left-hander Joe Hoerner--the greatest thing to happen to Boston since A1 Worthington. Yaz belted a tape-measure drive some 430 feet into the right field swarm, and the Sox lead 5-0. Boston skies gushed rain, and the lights went on at Fenway
