Angels Win, 3-2, at Hollywood
The Los Angeles Angels eked out a 3-2 win versus the Hollywood Stars at Gilmore Field. Nobody did more than pitcher Ralph Buxton. He was terrific. With the win, Los Angeles pushed its record to 80-62.

It could have been a different outcome for Los Angeles, had it not been for Tommy Butts, the top prospect . Butts contributed a 2-run single in the top of the fourth inning to put Los Angeles up, 3-2.

"Win or lose, we pick each other up in this clubhouse," Buxton told the Los Angeles Times.
