David Clyde yielded only one run on four hits in seven innings and gained credit for the victory when the Rangers defeated the Angels, 4-2. Manager Whitey Herzog removed Clyde after the 18-year-old lefthander had reached his 100-pitch limit. Bill Gogolewski, who relieved, gave up a homer by Bob Oliver in the ninth for the Angels' other run. [The Sporting News]
