July 11, 1967, Anaheim Stadium, Anaheim

Starting pitchers: Juan Marichal, Giants; Dean Chance, Twins.

Managers: Walter Alston, Dodgers; Hank Bauer, Orioles.

Highlight: Perez stepped up with one out in the top of the 15th and hit the game-winning homer off A’s pitcher Catfish Hunter, who was working his fifth inning of relief. The only other runs in the game also came on homers — in the second inning by the Phillies’ Dick Allen and in the sixth by the Orioles’ Brooks Robinson.
