Breaking a tie with three unearned runs in the seventh inning, the Angels posted an 8-4 victory over the Red Sox, who were stopped on their five-game winning streak. Rico Petrocelli drove in the Red Sox runs with a homer in the first and sacrifice fly in the third. The Angels came back to tie the score and then broke away in the seventh with three runs on two errors, a double by Jim Fregosi and single by Alex Johnson. Roger Repoz homered in the ninth to add the final tally. [The Sporting News]
