A pinch-single by Buck Martinez climaxed a two-run rally in the ninth inning and brought the Royals an 8-7 victory over the Athletics. The Royals scored five of their runs in the sixth. Tony Solaita and George Brett singled, but the threat seemed over when Fred Patek and Cookie Rojas were retired. However, Amos Otis tripled for two runs and scored himself on a double by Hal McRae. Fran Healy walked, Vada Pinson was safe on an error and John Mayberry, who had been out with a pulled hamstring, delivered a pinch-single, driving in two runs.
