A three-run, eighth-inning rally, in which a wild pitch by loser Nolan Ryan figured prominently, enabled the Athletics to turn back the Angels, 5-3, and spoil the return to the managerial ranks by Dick Williams. California led, 3-2, when Bert Campaneris got the A's comeback started with a one-out single, moved to second on a passed ball and scored on Sal Bando's double. With a two-ball count on Reggie Jackson, the Angels decided to walk the Oakland slugger, but Ryan wild-pitched Bando to third.
