The Orioles, who split the mound duties between Mike Cuellar and Bob Reynolds, defeated the Indians, 4-2, and moved into first place in the Eastern Division by four percentage points over the Yankees. The Orioles loaded the bases in the third inning and scored their first two runs on a sacrifice fly by Paul Blair and single by Tommy Davis. Boog Powell homered for the deciding run in the sixth. Singles by Merv Rettenmund and Rich Coggins, plus an error, added an insurance counter in the seventh. Buddy Bell and Chris Chambliss hit run-scoring doubles for the Indians.
