. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Sonny Siebert, making his first start since pulling a muscle in his lower back July 22, allowed only one hit and pitched the Red Sox to a 2-0 victory over the Angels. Siebert gave up a single by Jay Johnstone in the third inning. After walking Jim Fregosi in the fourth, Siebert retired 16 men in a row before giving up his second and last pass to Roger Repoz in the ninth. Homers by Mike Andrews in the third and Carl Yastrzemski in the fourth produced the Red Sox runs. [The Sporting News]
