Nolan Ryan did not yield a hit for the first 7 1/3 innings and then gave up two singles while pitching the Angels to a 4-1 victory over the Tigers. Ed Brinkman was safe on an error with one out in the eighth, moved up on a wild pitch and scored when Mickey Stanley singled for the Tigers' first hit. Al Kaline singled for the Tigers' other safety.

The Angels decided the game with three runs in the first inning. Denny Doyle doubled and scored on throwing errors by Jim Northrup and Ben Oglivie. John Doherty walked in his first major league time at bat and was forced by Frank Robinson. Joe Lahoud then stepped up and smashed a homer. After the Tigers picked up their run in the seventh, the Angels came back with a final tally on a walk to Ellie Rodriguez and double by Dave Chalk. [The Sporting News]
