Steve Foucault pitched 4 2/3 innings of no-hit relief and gained the victory when the Rangers defeated the Athletics, 7-6. Jeff Burroughs batted in three runs with a single and homer to pace the Rangers to a 5-0 lead before the A's erupted for six runs in the third. A double by Sal Bando and singles by Gene Tenace and Dick Green each accounted for two RBIs, but five of the A's six runs were unearned as the result of an error by Lenny Randle.
