Blue Moon Odom yielded only two hits in his first complete game since coming off the disabled list August 4 and smashed a homer as the Athletics extended their winning streak to six games by beating the Royals, 7-1. Reggie Jackson and Gene Tenace also homered for the A's, while Bill Sorrell accounted for the Royals' run with a circuit clout in the second inning.
