. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Angels, who hit only 24 homers at Anaheim Stadium during the entire 1976 season, equalled that total when Jerry Remy connected for the circuit during the course of a 6-2 victory over the Red Sox. Remy also drove in another run with a sacrifice fly. Bobby Bonds accounted for two RBIs with a single. [The Sporting News]
