Angels Split Doubleheader With Orioles

Angels 5, Orioles 4  (3-2)

The Angels had a huge come from behind victory in their first game of a double header with the Orioles.  Down 4-0, the Angels scored two runs in the eighth and then two in the ninth to tie the game up then Jim Fregosi singled home Don Wallace in the bottom of the tenth to win it.

The Angels did most of their damage on homeruns.  Paul Schaal hit a two run shot in the eighth and then Jose Cardenal and Don Mincher hit solo shots in the ninth.  It was Mincher’s third homerun already.  Fregosi finished the game with the hits.

George Brunet didn’t have a great game but he pitched well enough to keep the Angels in it.  He gave up four runs on seven hits and three walks with two strikeouts in eight innings of work.  Lew Burdette picked up the win when he held the Orioles scoreless in the ninth and tenth innings.

Orioles 3, Angels 0  (3-3)

The Angels were held to a single hit as they were completely shut down in game two of their doubleheader with the Orioles.  That lone hit was a ninth inning, one out double by Jim Fregosi that broke up Steve Barber’s no hitter.

A solid start by Jorge Rubio went to waste.  He gave up two runs on six hits and three walks with two strikeouts in six innings of work.
