September 1, 1967 at Anaheim Stadium
Angels 4 (67-65), Indians 3
For the first time in over two weeks, the Angels won back to back games as they finally halted their slide. The win came with it’s share of drama as the Angels went into the bottom of the ninth down by a run yet still won it. Knoop singled home a run to tie and then Wright scored on an error to win it.
Bobby Locke picked up the win with 1 2/3 innings of shutout relief to close out the game. He didn’t allow a single base runner although oddly, he didn’t strike anyone out either.
