Sunday August 24, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Strikeout artists Frank Tanana and Nolan Ryan each fanned eight as the Angels swept the Yankees in a doubleheader, 9-0 and 4-3. Tanana, who hurled the route in the opener and yielded only four hits, brought his season's whiff total to 197 for 189 1/3 innings. The Angels backed their lefthander with a 13-hit attack, including a two-run homer by Mike Miley.

In the nightcap, the Angels collected only four hits, but capitalized on seven walks and six errors. Ryan was kayoed in the seventh. The righthander's strikeouts increased his total to 186 for 198 1/3 innings. The Angels scored what proved to be the winning run in the eighth. Walt Williams dropped a fly ball by Leroy Stanton, who reached second on the error. John Balaz sacrificed and Jerry Remy drove in a run with a sacrifice fly. The Yankees came back with homers by Graog Nettles and Ed Herrmann off Dick Lange in their half of the eighth, but Jim Brewer saved the game as the Angels' fifth pitcher. [The Sporting News]
