The Angels, after winning the first game of a twi-night doubleheader, 8-0, behind the five-hit pitching of Frank Tanana, completed the sweep by defeating the Indians in the second game, 3-2, in 10 innings. Ellie Rodriguez had three hits for the Angels in the opener and drove in three runs.

In the nightcap, the Indians counted a run in the seventh inning on a double by Rick Manning, a passed ball and sacrifice fly by George Hendrick. After Mike Miley homered to tie the score in the eighth, the Angels broke the deadlock with two runs in the 10th on a triple by Mickey Rivers, error by Jack Brohamer on a grounder by Dave Collins, walk to Dave Chalk and single by Winston Llenas. The Indians fell short in their half, scoring once on singles by Frank Duffy, Brohamer and Manning before Chuck Hockenberry relieved and struck out Hendrick to end the game. [The Sporting News]
