The Angels absorbed their 20th shutout of the season, setting a club record, when they collected only three hits off Lew Krausse and Ken Sanders and lost to the Brewers, 3-0. Johnny Briggs homered for the Brewers in the second inning and their two other runs followed in the fourth on a single by Roberto Pena, triple by Ellie Rodriguez and single by Dave May.

Krausse pitched seven innings before giving way to Sanders, who made his 75th appearance of the season and received credit for his 27th save. [The Sporting News]
