Jim Perry does his brother one better by winning two games today in Minnesota’s sweep of the Pilots. Playing two more innings to complete yesterday’s suspended game, the Twins score four runs in the 18th to win, 11 – 7, then follow with a 4 – 0 win. Perry tosses 11 innings of shutout ball to win the pair. The loser in both games is John Gelnar. In the extra-inning game, the two teams strand a major-league record 44 runners, with the Twins contributing 23. The Mets and Cards will leave 45 runners on during a September 11, 1974 marathon. The two wins means the Twins go into the All-Star break with a four-game lead over the A’s in the American League West.

1978 – Ron Guidry (23-3) gains his third two-hit shutout of the month, 4 – 0 over the Indians. The two Indian hits are by Duane Kuiper, the second time this year that he has recorded the only hits in a game. The Yankees ace also two-hitted the Red Sox on September 9th (7 – 0) and 15th (4 – 0). It is Guidry’s 9th shutout of the year, a Yankee record, and just one short of the American League record for southpaws set by Boston lefty Babe Ruth in 1916. The Red Sox stay one game back of New York by topping Toronto, 7 – 6.
