Tuesday May 27, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Taking advantage of four walks in succession, the Indians scored three runs in the eighth inning to defeat the Angels, 6-3. Bill Singer, who started for the Angels, passed George Hendrick, Oscar Gamble and Frank Duffy to load the bases before yielding the mound to Mickey Scott, who walked Charlie Spikes to force in the tie-breaking run. John Ellis then batted for Alan Ashby and singled to score a pair of insurance tallies. [The Sporting News]
