Sunday July 19, 1970
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
The Angels swept a doubleheader with the Yankees, 5-2 and 3-1, winning the first game with a four-run outburst in the sixth inning and taking the second game behind the hitting of Ken McMullen, who drove in all three runs with a homer and single. In the lidlifter, a double by Sandy Alomar and pop-fly singles by Jim Spencer and Jim Fregosi produced a run in the sixth to break a 1-1 tie. Alex Johnson followed with a two-run double and then scored himself on a single by Jarvis Tatum.

In the nightcap, McMullen hit his single after a double by Spencer in the first inning and rapped his homer in the third after another double by Johnson. Curt Blefary homered for the Yankees' tally. [The Sporting News]
