Angels Win Close Shave, 3-2
California Angels starter Jon Warden hurled his team past the Minnesota Twins, 3-2. California reliever Dean Chance picked up the win, upping his record to 14-13. Bruce Von Hoff took the loss. The victory puts California at 61-93.

California used the clutch hitting of Robert Willet to capture the win. The first baseman drilled a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Angels ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"This was one of those 'not to be denied' games," said California field general Jeff Williams.
