Fisk says Yaz provided the cure but a trip to Toronto these Days is As Good a cure As any. I asked Yaz How he adjusted to differ ent styles of pitching said Fisk whose two homers and five rib gave the red sox a 7-2 Victory Over the Blue jays thursday night. The Guy s played baseball for 18 years now. He told me hitting was a constant Al Roundup Carlton Fisk. 4 hrs in last 5 games struggle an adjustment from week to week. We talked about my mental approach to the plate and a few other things. I made the necessary changes and it  in the last five games Fisk has belted four homers and driven in 17 runs. His average now stands at .307, with 23 Home Sand 83 rib. Fisk s first Homer a three run shot in the second inning was followed by George Scott s 32nd of the year establishing a major league record for consecutive Homer games. The sox have hit Back to Back homers in 16 games this season eclipsing the Mark of 15 set by the twins in1964. This Pennant race is going to come Down to the last week of the season said Fisk changing to a More important subject. We be got four games with Toronto before we play Baltimore. We be got to beat the weaker teams like  Boston has taken nine of 11 from the jays this season. The first place Yankees have split their series thus far with Toron to taking four of eight. Fisk was Quick to Point out that Only the Yankees failure to dominate a team like the jays has kept the sox in Contention 3 /2 games Back. It s simply imperative to beat those last place teams he emphasized. If you Don to it s a real  Roy Hartsfield manager of the expansion Blue jays was More than impressed with Fisk s Bat. That first pitch he hit off Jesse Jef Ferson was a darn Good pitch he said shaking his head. Yeah right now i d say he s hot. He s about As hot As a  maybe so. But if the Yankees Don t Start losing that flame May just Flicker out. Elsewhere in the american league Baltimore blanked Detroit 4-0, new York clipped Cleveland 4-3, California swept Chicago 2-0 and 3-2 and Kansas City topped Seattle 7-2. Orioles 4, tigers 0 Doug Decinces cracked a two run Homer and Jim Palmer 15-11, tossed a four hitter As the orioles handed Bob Sykes his fifth loss in nine decisions. Yankees 4, indians 3 Larvell Blanks and Jim norms committed costly errors accounting for three unearned runs ased Figueroa upped his record to 14-9. Jim Bibby who saw a per Sonal three game winning Streak halted dropped to 12-11. Angels 2-3, White sox 0-2 Lerrin Lagrow s wild pitch in the Bottorof the ninth brought Home Pinch runner or Lando Ramirez with the winning run to Cap a three run rally for the Angels. In the opener Nolan Ryan and Dave Laroche combined to shut out the sox for the first time this season As Don Baylor drove in both runs with a single and a Homer.
