A homer by Dave Revering with two out in the ninth inning carried the A's to a 3-2 victory over the Blue Jays. The A's took a 2-0 lead in the fifth, but the Blue Jays rallied to tie the score in the eighth with back-to-back doubles by Bob Bailor and Roy Howell, a single by Rico Carty and a sacrifice fly by John Mayberry. Revering's homer was the 14th served up by Blue Jay loser Tom Underwood this season.
