Clyde Wright helped himself with a three-run homer and got the support of a two-run smash by Tommie Reynolds as the Angels defeated the Tigers, 7-3. Reynolds and Tom Egan singled ahead of Wright's wallop in the second inning. Reynolds homered after Jim Fregosi was hit by a pitch in the third. [The Sporting News]
