. . . where the 1970s live forever!

One out apart, Roy White and Chris Chambliss drilled homers to power the Yankees to a 2-1 victory over the Angels. Dock Ellis, with help from Sparky Lyle in the ninth, was a winner for the third straight time. The Angels scored in the first on a walk and singles by Bobby Bonds and Bill Melton. White tied the score with his homer off Frank Tanana in the sixth and, after Thurman Munson was retired, Chambliss came through with the winning blow. [The Sporting News]
