Although yielding only three hits, Bill Singer was the victim of an unearned run in the second inning and then was defeated in the 11th when the Athletics scored on doubles by Mike Hegan and Bert Campaneris to beat the Angels, 2-1. In the second, Reggie Jackson walked, went to third when Al Gallagher missed a grounder by Deron Johnson and scored on a forceout by Vic Davalillo. The Angels got their run off Vida Blue in the seventh on singles by Frank Robinson, Richie Scheinblum and Ken Berry. [The Sporting News]
