Nolan Ryan, Angels' fireballing righthander, pitched the fourth no-hitter of his major league career, equalling Sandy Koufax' record, and gained his 100th victory in a 1-0 shutout of the Orioles. Ryan, who had yielded five homers in losing his two previous starts, walked four and struck out nine. The Orioles' closest bid for a hit came in the seventh inning when Tommy Davis rapped a slow grounder over second base, but Jerry Remy scooped up the ball and threw out the batter by a half-step.

In that same stanza, Ryan's victory was threatened when Bobby Grich walked and Lee May was safe on an error by Billy Smith. After the runners advanced on an infield out by Brooks Robinson, Ryan retired Elrod Hendricks on a pop fly to Dave Chalk. The Angels scored their lone run off Ross Grimsley with two out in the third on consecutive singles by Mickey Rivers, Tommy Harper and Chalk. [The Sporting News]
