The first Angels' batter to collect four hits in a game this season, Sandy Alomar rapped a homer, double and two singles to lead the way in a 10-5 victory over the White Sox. John Stephenson, hitting safely in his 15th straight game, smashed a single and his first A. L. homer, connecting with two men on base in the sixth inning. [The Sporting News]
