The Yankees drew a crowd of 50,093 for Bat Day and entertained the throng with a three-run rally in the ninth inning to defeat the Twins, 4-3. Graig Nettles homered in the sixth for the Yankees' only tally until their rally began in the ninth with a single by Jim Mason, walk to Elliott Maddox and run-scoring single by Lou Piniella. Rick Dempsey followed with a single, driving in Maddox to tie the score. Nettles then singled, sending Piniella home with the winning run. The Twins collected 13 hits, including four by Steve Braun, but failed to put them together effectively.
