A pinch-hit bloop single by Joe Rudi keyed a four-run ninth inning that lifted the Angels to a 10-6 triumph over the White Sox. The score was 6-6 when Don Baylor led off the ninth with a walk and was forced at second by Jason Thompson.

Bert Campaneris ran for Thompson and went to second on a single by Carney Lansford. After a walk to Larry Harlow loaded the bases, Rudi followed with his hit to center, scoring Campaneris and Lansford. After Rudi advanced to second on an error, Grich delivered a two-run single. [The Sporting News]
