Three homers, each with a man on base, carried the Orioles to a 6-5 victory over the Tigers. Elrod Hendricks started the slugging in the second inning and Mike Cuellar, who was the winning pitcher, added a two-run blow in the fourth. Bill Freehan, who hit a single and triple and scored two of the Tigers' first three runs, tied the game at 4-4 with a circuit clout in the sixth.
