. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A single by Dave Chalk in the 16th inning gave the Angels a 5-4 marathon triumph over the Indians. Don Baylor was hit by a pitch to lead off the Angels' 16th and moved to second on a sacrifice. After Brian Downing flied out, Chalk singled to left to plate Baylor. A two-run homer by Baylor had given the Angels a 4-2 lead in the top of 11th but the Tribe tied it in the bottom of the frame on a two-run single by Tom Veryzer. [The Sporting News]
