. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Pitching a four-hitter, Dave Frost posted his first major league shutout as the Angels swept over the Mariners in a twi-night doubleheader, 10-5 and 5-0. Although batting only .215 going into the twin bill, Joe Rudi continued his recent run production for the Angels, driving in four in the opener and one in the nightcap to bring his RBI streak to 18 in his last 15 games.
