The batting of Dave Revering and pitching of Mike Norris enabled the A's to defeat the Angels, 3-1, for their fourth straight victory. Revering batted in the A's first run with a double in the first inning and added their final tally after hitting another double in the sixth. Norris yielded only four hits in 8 1/3 innings before a leg injury forced the righthander's exit from the mound. [The Sporting News]
