Berger Helps Los Angeles Cruise to 10-3 Win
Wally Berger was a major factor in the 10-3 Los Angeles win over Sacramento. The Angels right fielder went 3 for 6 with a home run and a double, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 4. With the win, the Angels have a record of 71-50.

With Los Angeles leading 2-0 in the top of the second, Berger hit a fastball from Les Webber for a grand slam home run. It was his 24th home run of the season and put the Angels ahead, 6-0.

"We'll relax tonight and get back after it tomorrow," Berger said after the game.
