In a scoreless game at Anaheim Stadium, Ken Brett of the Chicago White Sox has a no-hitter with two outs in the 9th inning when Jerry Remy of the California Angels hits a slow roller down the third base line. Third baseman Jorge Orta lets the ball roll and, in a controversial ruling, it’s scored as a hit, though many think it ought to be ruled an error. Brett then gives up a hit in the 10th to former teammmate Bill Melton but wins the game, 1 – 0, in 11 innings.
