For 7 innings, Oakland’s Jack Morris held the New York Swats scoreless on 4 hits. But Swats starter Hal Newhouser was just as good, scattering 5 hits and allowing just a run in the 1st. New York finally broke through in the bottom of the 8th, with Roberto Alomar leading off the inning with a single and scoring on Ty Cobb’s triple to tie the game 1-1. With a drawn-in infield, Joe Gordon gunned down Cobb at the plate and Oakland ended the threat. Newhouser pitched a perfect 9th. Bullet Rogan came in in relief. Rogan allowed a leadoff single to Ken Griffey Jr. Robin Yount bobbled a sharp grounder, and Alomar hit the game-winning single to give the Swats the win. Oakland has lost 3 straight and is now 14-18. The win puts New York just 1/2 game back at 14-19. Oakland’s Goose Goslin will miss at least a week after an injury during pre-game warmups.
