. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Continuing a hot streak, Mitchell Page smashed his first two major league homers, plus a double, and drove in six runs as the Athletics defeated the Angels, 9-3. With his splurge, the rookie outfielder boasted 12 hits in his first 24 times at bat. Page started his slugging with a three-run homer in the third inning, added a solo shot in the seventh and doubled for two more RBIs in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
