A pass to Jim Spencer with the bases loaded in the eighth inning handed the Angels their go-ahead run in a 5-3 victory over the Red Sox. Tony Conigliaro batted in the Red Sox tallies with a pair of homers. In the Angels' eighth, Sandy Alomar beat out a bunt and when Rico Petrocelli dropped the throw to second on an attempted sacrifice by Jim Fregosi, both runners were safe. Roger Repoz bunted them along and, after an intentional pass to Alex Johnson, Spencer drew a walk to force in Alomar. Fregosi scored an insurance run on a grounder by Ken McMullen.
