Angels Deal Beavers 10-6 Defeat
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

Prince Oana was instrumental in his team's 10-6 triumph over the Portland Beavers. The right fielder went 2 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3 for the Los Angeles Angels. The victory gives Los Angeles a record of 67-44.

Los Angeles relied on the hitting of Wally Berger to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Angels on top, 2-0. For the game, Berger had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Oana told the Los Angeles Times.
