Boog Powell pounded two homers and Don Buford belted one to enable the Orioles to snap a three-game losing streak with a 4-2 victory over the Indians. Buford walked ahead of Powell's first homer of the game in the third. The pair then joined in hitting solo swats in the fifth to provide Dave McNally with the margin for his 12th victory of the season. [The Sporting News]
