Dick Lange, hurling the route for only the third time in 28 starts in his career with the Angels, doled out four hits and defeated the Twins, 6-1. Lange's bid for his first major league shutout was ruined when Tony Oliva homered in the ninth inning. The Angels' scoring included a homer by Dave Collins with a man on base in the third.
