Bobby Grich doubled in the 15th inning and scored on a single by Brooks Robinson to bring the Orioles a 2-1 victory over the Rangers. The Orioles scored their first run without the benefit of a hit in the opening inning. Don Buford and Johnny Oates walked. Buford tagged up and advanced to third on a long fly by Grich and crossed the plate on a grounder by Boog Powell. Frank Howard tied the score with a homer in the seventh.
