Scattering six hits, Dave Goltz pitched the Twins to a 3-0 whitewashing of the A's. The Twins scored their first run in the fourth inning when Rob Wilfong beat out a bunt, took third on a single by Ken Landreaux and scored when Oakland first baseman Wayne Gross misplayed a grounder by Roy Smalley. A two-run double by Ken Landreaux in the fifth inning closed out the scoring.
