With two out in the 10th inning, Claudell Washington walked, stole second and scored on a single by Sal Bando to give the Athletics a 7-6 victory over the Red Sox. Reggie Jackson homered for the A's with a man on base and Washington drove in two runs with a single, while the Red Sox had a two-run homer by Carl Yastrzemski, plus two RBIs by Fred Lynn on a pair of singles, in early scoring that produced a 6-6 tie.
