Effective relief pitching by Jesse Jefferson and Don Aase enabled the Angels to prevail over the Yankees, 6-2. Jefferson, coming on in relief in the first inning when Angels starter Bill Travers departed with tendinitis after walking leadoff batter Willie Randolph on four pitches, hurled 6 2/3 innings and was charged with only one run before Aase came on to get the last seven outs.
