Sending 14 batters to the plate in a club-record nine-run uprising in the seventh inning, the Blue Jays prevailed over the Angels, 10-6. Trailing, 6-1, the Jays loaded the bases in their big inning on a walk to Rico Carty, single by Otto Velez and walk to Rick Cerone.

Paul Hartzell, replacing Ken Brett on the mound for the Angels, walked in one run and was touched for a single by Sam Ewing. The rally continued with two errors, an RBI single by Rick Bosetti, RBI double by Bob Bailor, run-scoring single by Roy Howell, fielder's choice RBI by John Mayberry and run-producing single by Cerone. Carty scored two runs in the inning. [The Sporting News]
