Fisk was a source of great heartache for the Oakland faithful all day. He just kept pounding out hits! He slapped a one-base hit in the 4th inning, hit a bases-empty home run in the 5th inning, popped a two-run clout over the fence in the 7th inning and doubled in the 9th inning. Bob James was perfect in relief and got the save, his 35th.
The winning pitcher was Britt Burns(12-18) who allowed 5 runs in 6 and 2/3 innings. Bill Krueger(8-12) was hit with the loss.
