Getting five-hit pitching from Frank Tanana, the Angels extended their winning streak to six games with an 8-2 victory over the Twins, who lost their ninth straight. After the Twins counted their pair in the second inning, the Angels scored three runs in the fourth. Dan Ford doubled and scored on a single by Don Baylor. Joe Rudi then put the Angels in front with a homer for the 1,400th hit of his career. [The Sporting News]
