Off-season acquisitions Catfish Hunter and Bobby Bonds keyed the Yankees to a 10-inning, 4-3 victory over the Angels. Hunter went the route for his fourth win in his last five decisions and Bonds drove in the winning run with a sacrifice fly.

The decisive rally started when pinch-hitter Rick Dempsey beat out an infield roller. Roy White followed with a single and Don Kirkwood replaced starter Andy Hassler on the mound for the Angels. Elliott Maddox drew a walk to load the bases and Bonds then lifted a fly ball to deep center to plate the winning marker. The Angels had tied game in the eighth on Joe Lahoud's two-out, two-run homer. [The Sporting News]
