Sunday August 30, 1981
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Knocking out Jim Palmer in the second inning, the Angels routed the Orioles, 7-1. Palmer issued a walk to Rod Carew and hit Fred Lynn with a pitch in the first inning before giving up a three-run homer to Don Baylor. Butch Hobson belted a round-tripper in the second inning after a one-out walk to Juan Beniquez. [The Sporting News]
