The Orioles scored three runs in each of the first two innings and breezed to a 6-2 victory over Indians behind the pitching of Dave McNally. Two walks, a triple by Paul Blair and a single by Brooks Robinson started the Orioles' production. A single by McNally, double by Don Buford, single by Chico Salmon, a sacrifice fly by Merv Rettenmund and an error added a second trio. McNally was deprived of a shutout when Roy Foster homered with a man on base in the ninth inning.
