The Red Sox snapped a 5-5 tie with a four-run, seventh-inning flurry and went on to defeat the Athletics, 10-5. Oakland had pulled even in the top of the inning on Gene Tenace's three-run homer. The Boston surge began when Juan Beniquez walked and scored from first on Rick Burleson's hit-and-run single. Following a walk to Carl Yastrzemski, Jim Rice doubled home two more runs, then scored himself on Dwight Evans' two-bagger.
