. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A bases-loaded double by Bert Campaneris and two-run homer by Ray Fosse were among the Athletics' 12 hits in an 11-5 victory over the Orioles. A single by Campaneris, who had three hits for the day, a triple by Bill North and sacrifice fly by Reggie Jackson started the A's scoring in the first inning. Fosse rapped his homer in the second. Three more runs in the fifth, two scoring on a single by Sal Bando, settled things, but the A's added a run in the seventh and their final counters on Campaneris' double in the eighth. Bobby Grich and Paul Blair hit homers for the Orioles. [The Sporting News]
