Getting only two hits off Ken Holtzman, the Rangers lost to the Yankees, 3-0, for their ninth defeat in a row. The Yankees sent Holtzman on his way to success over Bert Blyleven with two runs in the fourth inning on a single by Chris Chambliss, a wild pitch, pass to Carlos May, single by Graig Nettles and grounder by Oscar Gamble. Chambliss doubled and Nettles singled for the other run in the eighth.
