. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Four-hit pitching by Dave Frost enabled the Angels to capture a 10-inning, 2-1 verdict over the Twins. The score was 1-1 when Al Cowens led off the California 10th with a single, advanced to second on a sacrifice by Carney Lansford, moved to third on a single by Dan Ford and scored on a sacrifice fly by Don Baylor.
