A single by Joe Rudi scored Bill North in the 15th inning and gave the Athletics a 4-3 victory over the Orioles. The A's took a 2-0 lead in the third on a single by Sal Bando, pass to North, single by Bert Campaneris and sacrifice fly by Claudell Washington, but the Orioles picked up a run in the sixth and went ahead in the seventh.

After singles by Mark Belanger and Al Bumbry and a sacrifice by Bobby Grich, Tommy Davis drew an intentional pass, bringing up Lee May, who singled to drive in two runs. Campaneris tied the score with a homer in the eighth. Then in the 15th, North walked, Campaneris sacrificed and, after an intentional pass to Washington, Rudi hit his game-winning single.
