Ed Kirkpatrick homered with a man on base for the Royals in the eighth inning, but the Orioles came back with a three-run rally in their half to gain a 3-2 victory. Singles by Mark Belanger and Terry Crowley and a wild throw by Paul Schaal on an infield hit by Don Buford produced the Orioles' first run. Merv Rettenmund singled to drive in the tying tally and Boog Powell added the winning run with a sacrifice fly.
