The Rangers scored three runs in the third inning and held on for a 3-2 win over the Yankees. With a crowd of 11,251 at the game, Rangers' attendance went up to 693,452, exceeding their total for the entire 1973 season. With two out in the third, both Dave Nelson and Alex Johnson beat out infield hits. Following a wild pitch, Mike Hargrove smashed a hit off Chris Chambliss' glove, Nelson and Johnson scoring. When Jim Spencer and Lenny Randle followed with singles, Hargrove scored what proved to be the deciding run. Chambliss singled in the Yankees' first run in the fourth and set up their other tally with a single in the sixth.
