Monday May 29, 1978
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The pitching of Pablo Torrealba and hitting of Thad Bosley propelled the White Sox to a 7-0 blanking of the Angels. Torrealba hurled a four-hitter in recording his first major league shutout.

Bosley drove in four runs on three hits including his first major league home run. The round-tripper came on an 0-2 pitch in the first inning. The Sox center fielder also doubled home a tally in the third frame and stroked a two-run single in the fourth. [The Sporting News]
