Staked to seven-run lead in the first inning. Chuck Dobson pitched the Athletics to an 11-0 victory over the Yankees. The A's loaded the bases against Steve Kline on a single by Felipe Alou and two walks. Don Mincher crashed a two-run double, Reggie Jackson walked to fill the sacks again and Frank Fernandez batted in two runs with a single. Joining in the spree, Dobson also drove a pair across with a single. After Kline departed, Rick Monday singled off Mike Kekich to account for the seventh run of the inning. [The Sporting News]
