Improving his record to 18-8 with his fifth shutout of the season, Luis Tiant pitched the Red Sox to a 3-0 victory over the Angels. The Red Sox scored their first two runs in the second inning after Rick Miller walked and Dwight Evans singled. Doug Griffin doubled, driving in Miller, but Evans also tried to score and was thrown out at the plate. However, Rick Burleson followed with a single to send Griffin home. A walk to Carl Yastrzemski and singles by Evans and Tommy Harper accounted for the final run in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
