. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Sonny Siebert, who opened the season with nine straight victories, was tagged with his second defeat when the Angels beat the Red Sox, 5-2. Jim Fregosi homered off Siebert in the first inning and scored again after hitting a single in the fourth. Clyde Wright, who was the winner with the help of Dave LaRoche, tripled to drive in one of the Angels' two runs in the seventh, knocking out Siebert. [The Sporting News]
