Crossing up the Athletics' strategy, Jeff Torborg knocked in two runs with a bases-loaded double in the fourth inning for the Angels' key hit in a 4-2 victory. Frank Robinson opened the stanza with a single and Bob Oliver walked. After a sacrifice by Leroy Stanton, Ken Berry struck out. The A's then decided to walk Al Gallagher intentionally to get at Torborg, who wrecked the move with his double. Sandy Alomar followed with a single to add another run.
