A three run, third inning was all the California Angels needed to get past the Detroit Tigers, as they handed Denny McLain his twelfth loss, by a score of 3 to 2. McLain must now win three out of four games to reach the twenty-win plateau. Oakland, New York, Baltimore and Washington are the remaining teams left to play.
