ALDS Game 4: Angels 10, Blue Jays 7

Toronto 7 California 10
Nunez (L) Aase (W)
Anaheim Stadium
 
Scores can be so misleading. Miller singled and Grich tripled bringing him home. In the 4th The Heavenly Angels sang loud and cast Nunez out of heaven. A walk by Carew and Lansford followed by a Campaneris sacrifice bunt forced Nunez to walk Miller hoping for a double play. Instead Downing singled scoring 2. When Grich struck out things appeared to be turning around but the Angel trumpets blew and baylor singled and Game MVP Willie Aikens homered by innings end 6 scored. With a 7-1 lead Moseby got one back with a solo homer. In the 6th a single by Lee, an error by Campaneris and a walk to McGriff gave the Blue Jays some hope with George Bell up nobody out and bases loaded.The Angels had Bell popup to Campaneris. Pinch hitter Moore sacrifice bunted scoring one and Mullineks singled scoring 2 more. It was now 7-4 but Willie Aikens powered one out of the park to take an 8-4 lead. In the 8th Grich doubled of the wall, Baylor was walked and Joe Rudi came in to pinch hit for Willie Aikens and he singled, Ford walked and Harlow singled in another run. The Blue Jays down 10-4 rallied in the 9th with 3 lead off singles to Moore, Mullineks and Moseby, Upshaw popped up, Leach singled scoring 2, Lee sacrificed for another run and Fernadez singled, Clear had enough and got McGriff to flyout to end the game.
Series tied at 2 games each.
