Scoring six runs in the fourth inning, the Rangers defeated the Blue Jays, 8-0. Charlie Hough, who posted the shutout on a five-hitter, was a last-minute replacement for Fergie Jenkins, who was charged the previous day with possession of illegal drugs. Jenkins was scheduled to pitch but was scratched by Manager Pat Corrales at suggestion of league President Lee MacPhail.
