The final score was the California Angels 3, the New York Yankees 2. Ron Romanick(8-17) had a solid outing for California. He went 8 innings allowing 7 hits and 3 walks. New York tried unsuccessfully to come back in the 9th.
Romanick got help from Donnie Moore who earned his 27th save. Joe Cowley(9-10) was the losing pitcher. The win by California is a very welcome one as they have been struggling in recent days. Their record now stands at 56-74 - only 2-8 in their last ten games. New York has a record of 75-55 after the loss.
