| The Yankees, who had failed to score more than two runs in any time at bat in 16 straight games, broke their drouth with three runs in the fourth inning and added three more in the eighth to defeat the Angels, 6-1. In the fourth, Thurman Munson singled and Roy White homered for the first two runs and the third followed on a single by Bobby Murcer, a walk and a pair of forceouts. John Ellis batted in two runs with a double in the eighth and scored himself on a single by Danny Cater. [The Sporting News] |
