. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Gary Ross lowered his earned run average to 2.91, while showing a record of only 8-15, after the Angels' righthander shut out the Twins, 6-0. The Angels took advantage of three walks, two errors and a passed ball to score three runs off Dave Goltz in the second inning. Dave Collins, who drove in a run with a single, accounted for another RBI with a grounder in the fourth. [The Sporting News]
