. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Backed by a 14-hit attack, Frank Tanana became a seven-game winner when the Angels defeated the Brewers, 7-1. The southpaw gave up nine hits with the Brewers' only run coming on a homer by Sixto Lezcano. Carney Lansford drove in two of the Angels' markers with a double, Lyman Bostock accounted for a pair with a bases-loaded single and Terry Humphrey produced two with a sacrifice fly and double.
