. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Angel Mangual, serving as the Athletics' designated hitter, homered in the 12th inning to beat the Orioles, 4-3. All runs in the game came as a result of round-trippers. Boog Powell connected with a man on base to put the Orioles ahead in the third inning, but Joe Rudi matched that blow for the A's in the sixth. After Gene Tenace homered for the A's in the seventh, Don Baylor knotted the count with a circuit clout for the Orioles in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
