Gary Ross allowed only two hits and pitched the Angels to a 2-0 victory over the Brewers in his first complete game in the major leagues since July 6, 1968. The Angels scored both their runs in the second inning on singles by Tommy Davis and Bruce Bochte, a sacrifice fly by Dan Briggs and single by Dave Chalk. [The Sporting News]
