Ninth-inning relief by Mark Littell saved a victory for Jim Colborn as the Royals defeated the Rangers, 1-0. The Royals' run off Gaylord Perry scored in the fifth with two out on a double by Frank White and single by Tom Poquette. Juan Beniquez and Bump Wills singled with one away in the Rangers' ninth, but Littell came in and retired Ken Henderson and Bill Fahey to earn his 10th save.
