					| Wilkie Finds Groove in 5-1 Triumph |  
					| The home crowd had a good time watching the Los Angeles Angels and Seattle Rainiers get after it. 
 The Seattle Rainiers got a stellar performance from pitcher Lefty Wilkie, who handcuffed the Los Angeles offense en route to a win, 5-1, at Sick's Stadium. Los Angeles has now lost 4 straight.
 
 Wilkie, a native of Canada, was dealing all game. He kept Los Angeles hitters off-balance, while giving the Rainiers 9 quality innings. Wilkie threw 105 pitches, allowing 2 hits and striking out 3.
 
 "Lefty is tough when he's hitting his spots," said Seattle manager Jim Burns.
