With Ron Guidry pitching one-hit ball over the final three innings in relief of Gaylord Perry, the Yankees extended their winning skein to four games by defeating the Angels, 5-3. The Yankees posted three runs in the first inning, two scoring on singles by Lou Piniella and Rick Cerone and the third crossing the plate on a passed ball. Bob Watson hit a run-scoring single in the fourth. A squeeze bunt by Bucky Dent produced a sixth-inning marker. [The Sporting News]
