. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Richie Scheinblum, playing his first game in a California uniform after being acquired from the Reds, homered in the fifth inning to start the Angels off to a 5-2 victory over the Yankees. Scheinblum's swat snapped a scoreless duel between Nolan Ryan and Pat Dobson, who made his first start for the Yankees.

The Angels added two runs in the sixth on a double by Vada Pinson, pass to Frank Robinson, an error and a double by Bob Oliver. A single by Sandy Alomar, an error and a triple by Mike Epstein produced another pair in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
