. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Slump-ridden Tony Solaita drove in three runs with a homer and two singles to spark the Angels to an 11-6 victory over the Athletics. Nolan Ryan yielded 10 hits and seven walks in 5 2/3 innings, but emerged the winner with help from reliever Sid Monge. A's manager Jack McKeon protested the game after being ejected in the second inning for arguing that Ryan had balked on an attempted pickoff play. [The Sporting News]
