Reggie Jackson batted in five runs with a homer, double and single, while Joe Rudi accounted for two runs with a triple as the Athletics defeated the Twins, 7-4. Jackson homered in the fifth inning, but the A's trailed, 4-1, until the seventh when Gaylen Pitts, Champ Summers and Rudi walked and Jackson cleared the sacks with a double to tie the score. Rudi broke the deadlock with his triple in the ninth and Jackson added the final run with his single.
