Oakland pitcher Rick Langford overcame a six-run first inning including Andre Thornton’s grand slam to beat the Cleveland Indians 8-6. Langford, 9-13, allowed only one more hit after the first, with Duane Kuiper’s ninth-inning single the lone exception, as Oakland rallied for the victory. Rickey Henderson drove in the seventh-inning go-ahead run, while Mike Heath homered in the sixth and Langford received support from teammates who refused to quit.
