Surviving a shaky start, Vida Blue pitched the Athletics to a 6-3 victory over the Angels. Blue gave up the Angels' runs in the first inning, two scoring on a homer by Leroy Stanton. The A's came back to win with the aid of homers by Billy Williams and Reggie Jackson, each with a man on base. [The Sporting News]
