. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Luis Alvarado hit a two-run double in the second inning, after Carlos May and Hank Allen were safe on consecutive errors by shortstop Rudy Meoli, to enable the White Sox to defeat the Angels, 2-0. However, the victory proved costly for the White Sox when Dick Allen suffered a hairline fracture of his left fibula in a collision at first base with Mike Epstein while leaping for a high throw in the sixth inning.
