Following the lead of Ed Figueroa, who posted a 2-0 victory in the previous night's game, the Angels shut out the Athletics for the second straight time by the same 2-0 score. Three pitchers, Dick Lange, Andy Hassler and Don Kirkwood, saw service for the Angels. Lange allowed four hits and six walks before being lifted with two men on base and one out in the sixth inning.

Hassler issued a pass to load the bases. Kirkwood then took over and ended the threat by striking out Angel Mangual and getting Bert Campaneris on a grounder. Dave Chalk batted in both of the Angels' runs off Vida Blue. A walk to Leroy Stanton and singles by Tommy Harper and Chalk produced the initial tally in the second. Harper doubled and Chalk singled for the other run in the fourth. [The Sporting News]
