Butler Delivers First Major League Shutout
Kansas City pitcher Bill Butler defeats the California Angels 1-0 for his first major league shutout.

Pat Kelly drives in the lone run on Bob Oliver's grounder as Lou Piniella makes a leaping catch to stop a sixth-inning rally. Butler credits his fastball as the key pitch and notes his tough ninth inning as fatigue set in.
