Larry Hisle scored three times for the Phillies; Frank Baker had a pinch-hit homer for the Indians. Cleveland's Tony Horton was called out in the sixth inning for leaving third base early on an apparent sacrifice fly.
San Diego 5, Kansas City 1: Nate Colbert homered in the sixth to break a scoreless tie and singled home another run in the Podres' four-run seventh.

After the game, the Pilots demoted Meyer and activated Garry Roggenburk.
