The Yankees, who were trailing, 5-2, after six innings, came from behind to defeat the Rangers, 6-5. A three-run homer by Toby Harrah, solo swat by Mike Hargrove and another run on a single by Willie Horton and triple by Harrah built up the Rangers' lead over the Yankees, who had a homer by Lou Piniella.
