Chris Chambliss stole home to cap the Yankees' scoring in a 4-1 victory over the Twins. Willie Randolph doubled to drive in two runs in the fourth inning. Reggie Jackson doubled and scored on a single by Chambliss in the fifth. After stopping at third on a double by Lou Piniella, Chambliss broke for home and made it easily when reliever Ron Schueler's low throw bounced out of catcher Butch Wynegar's mitt in front of the plate.
