Roy Foster and Buddy Bradford each hit two homers and drove in four runs apiece as the Indians trounced the Angels, 14-1. Sam McDowell, who pitched a five-hitter, breezed to his 19th victory, a career high for the lefthander. The Angels spoiled his shutout bid in the ninth inning, scoring on walk to Billy Cowan, single by Tommie Reynolds and double play grounder by Joe Azcue.

Foster started the Indians' scoring with a homer in the first and connected again with two men on base in the sixth. Bradford also homered in the sixth and hit his other homer with two aboard in the eighth. Eddie Leon added a round-tripper to the Indians' 14-hit attack. [The Sporting News]
