BASEBALL DAILY REPORT : ANGELS

The Angels’ bullpen leads the majors with an earned-run average of 1.39. Angel relievers have allowed an earned run in only five of 22 games and are seven for seven in save situations. They’ve also stranded 30 of 37 inherited baserunners. . . . Dave Gallagher need no longer lament his lack of fan mail. An envelope arrived for him containing a picture inscribed, “Don’t ever say you don’t get any fan mail.” It was signed, “Your 1 fan, Jerry Reuss.” . . . Baltimore shortstop Cal Ripken’s seventh-inning throwing error ended his 51-game errorless streak. He has committed five errors in 235 games. . . . Wally Joyner broke Rod Carew’s club record for most games played at first base with his 721st appearance.
