George Brett, who earlier in the season had six consecutive three-hit games, had four hits and set up the run that enabled the Royals to defeat the Athletics, 4-3, in 12 innings. Amos Otis drew a walk from Rollie Fingers, took third when Brett singled for his fourth hit and scored on a sacrifice fly by John Mayberry.
