Tommy Davis, stretching his batting streak to 17 games, drove in a run with a single in the fourth inning to enable the Orioles to defeat the Rangers, 1-0. Mike Cuellar, winning for the first time since May 26, yielded only three hits.

The Orioles' run off Sonny Siebert was unearned, resulting from an error by Jim Mason that allowed Al Bumbry to reach second. Rich Coggins followed with a single, Bumbry stopping at third. After Bobby Grich flied out, Davis drove in the lone run. [The Sporting News]
