Sunday May 11, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Tossing a four-hitter, Dan Petry recorded his first major league shutout as the Tigers downed the Angels, 4-0, handing California its sixth straight loss. The Tigers scored twice in the second inning on a walk to Richie Hebner, singles by Champ Summers and Jason Thompson and a double-play grounder. Consecutive singles by Lou Whitaker, Alan Trammell and Kirk Gibson produced a run in the fifth inning and Trammell's sacrifice fly delivered the final tally in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
