A two-out single by Mario Guerrero in the 12th inning drove in the Angels' winning run and enabled Nolan Ryan to defeat the Yankees, 6-5, for his 17th victory. The Yankees grabbed a 3-0 lead on a homer by Chris Chambliss in the first inning, but the Angels chased Ken Holtzman while scoring four runs in the third.

After Yankees went ahead again with a pair in their half of the third, the Angels tied the score in the fourth on a single by Rance Mulliniks and double by Gil Flores. Dave Chalk drew a walk from Sparky Lyle in the 12th, Thad Bosley sacrificed and Mulliniks flied out before Guerrero lashed his single to drive in the deciding run. [The Sporting News]
