Friday August 8, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Larry Gura upped his career record to 3-0 over Nolan Ryan and the Angels with a 4-3 five-hit victory. Ed Herrmann cracked a home run and two singles to pace the Yankees. Ryan lasted 2 1/3 innings and made two throwing errors in his second comeback bid from a groin pull.

The Yankees scored three in the first when Bobby Bonds walked, stole second and raced home when Ryan threw Sandy Alomar's bunt attempt away. Alomar stole second and then scored on Roy White's double. White advanced on Ryan's errant pickoff and scored on Thurman Munson's sacrifice fly. Dave Chalk hit a two-run homer in the ninth for the Angels, who tied a club record by turning six double plays.
