Saturday May 31, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
A single by Cesar Tovar with two out in the sixth inning accounted for the Rangers' only hit off Catfish Hunter, who pitched the Yankees to a 6-0 victory before a Ball Night Crowd of 38,714, second largest turnout in the four-year history of Arlington Stadium. The Yankees supported Hunter with a 16-hit attack, including a two-run homer by Bobby Bonds. [The Sporting News]
