TEAM RISP- Rangers: 3 for 10 Red Barons: 3 for 13
The Texas Rangers bested the Seattle Red Barons in 12 innings by a 7 to 4
score at Shea Stadium.
Both teams had scored 4 runs after nine full innings. Texas ended up winning
it in the 12th inning. Thurman Munson led off and keyed the rally when he
drew a walk. Fred Lynn stepped up next and he reached on an error. Claudell
Washington then laid down a sacrifice bunt. One out later, Gary Matthews
came to bat and launched a three-run homer. Texas took care of Seattle with
no trouble in the bottom of the 12th.
Mark Lee(1-0) went 1/3 of an inning allowing no runs for the victory. Ken
Forsch gained credit for his 1st save. Don Stanhouse(0-1) was charged with
the loss in relief. He was the victim of a defensive lapse and did not allow
an earned run in the game.
