Williams Sheds Timing Woes With Early A’s Homer
Billy Williams returned from a sore ankle to spark Oakland with a third inning single and an eighth inning grand slam style homer in a 7-1 win over the Angels. He admitted the single felt embarrassing as he adjusts timing and strength. Steve Busby shut down Houston over seven innings, fanning six as Kansas City beat the Astros. An experimental stitched baseball preceded a 14-9 Mets over Cardinals game with Ted Simmons homering thrice for St Louis and John Milner, Rich Puig supporting the Mets. Other results: Boston over Chicago, Pittsburgh over Detroit, Baltimore over Philadelphia, Dodgers over Minnesota, Texas over Atlanta, Cincinnati over New York, San Diego over Milwaukee, Cleveland over San Francisco in 10 innings.
