The Angels, who had lost 11 straight games to the Tigers over two seasons, snapped back at their jinx club with a 6-1 victory. Tom Donohue hit his second major league homer and Bert Campaneris hit his first homer since July 14, 1978, each with a man on base, to pace the Angels' scoring. Bruce Kison and Dave LaRoche combined on a four-hitter with the Tigers' run counting in the sixth inning on a walk and a triple by Alan Trammell. [The Sporting News]
