New manager Billy Hunter, who did not arrive until the fourth inning, watched from the stands as the Rangers defeated the Athletics, 5-2. With coach Connie Ryan in charge, the Rangers put over three runs in the third inning. After singles by Bert Campaneris and Toby Harrah around a sacrifice produced the first tally, Claudell Washington smashed a homer. Willie Horton doubled and Mike Hargrove singled for a run in the eighth and the Rangers added their final tally on a pass to Juan Beniquez with the bases loaded in the ninth.
