Although executing a triple play, the Orioles lost to the Athletics, 5-4. Deron Johnson hit a three-run homer for the A's in the first inning, but the Orioles came back to take a 4-3 lead with the aid of a two-run smash by Merv Rettenrnund. The A's tied the score with a circuit clout by Reggie Jackson in the seventh and pushed across the deciding run in the eighth on a single by Dick Green, forceout by Bert Campaneris, his theft of second and a single by Sal Bando.
