Getting good results from seven hits, the Angels defeated the Royals, 6-2. The Angels' biggest blow was a homer by Billy Cowan, who connected in the fourth inning after Jim Fregosi walked and Amos Otis dropped a fly by Bob Johnson. Tom Murphy, who scored twice for the Angels, gained his 10th victory with the aid of Eddie Fisher, who retired the last two batters in the ninth.
