. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Mel Stottlemyre extended his career mastery of the Angels, pitching the Yankees to a 3-0 victory for his second straight shutout of the California club this year and his third in a row over two seasons. The victory was the Yankee ace's ninth in succession against the Angels since June 30, 1967, and his 16th against three defeats for his career. [The Sporting News]
