. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Yankees did not exactly knock down the fences, but they finally gave Dock Ellis enough runs to enable the righthander to beat the Angels, 4-2, snapping his personal four-game losing streak. The Yankees previously had scored a total of only three runs for Ellis while he was on the mound in his four losses, but this time he had the support of a homer by Graig Nettles and a two-run triple by Chris Chambliss.
