Pinch-hitting in the 11th inning, Ken McMullen knocked in a run with a single and Sal Bando hit a sacrifice fly to carry the Athletics to a 6-4 victory over the Yankees. Bert Campaneris doubled and Don Baylor was passed intentionally before McMullen batted for Matt Alexander and hit his single to score Campaneris with the tie-breaking tally. Baylor took third on the play and counted the final run after Bando flied out. [The Sporting News]
