Winning their eighth straight game, the Twins got three-hit pitching from Dave Goltz and blanked the A's, 7-0. Goltz had a no-hitter for 7 1/3 innings but a single by Mike Edwards broke the hitless skein. Three errors by the A's and run-scoring singles by Rod Carew, Bombo Rivera, Jerry Morales and Glenn Borgmann powered the Twins' offense. Hosken Powell added a solo homer.
