Winning his first game since May 23, Nolan Ryan tossed a six-hitter as the Angels blanked the Indians, 3-0. The Angels got two runs in the fourth inning on a single by Don Baylor, RBI double by Joe Rudi and single by Brian Downing. Baylor hit a solo homer in the seventh. The Tribe loaded the sacks with none out in the fourth frame but Ryan struck out Gary Alexander, Jim Norris and Duane Kuiper. [The Sporting News]
