. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Bobby Grich drove in his 42nd and 43rd runs of the season with a two-run homer in the second, and Doyle Alexander evened his record at 3-3 with a five-hitter as the Orioles pinned a 3-1 defeat on the Tigers' Lerrin LaGrow. Grich's 12th round-tripper of the campaign came in the second after Boog Powell had led off with a double. Baltimore's final tally came in the seventh when Tiger reliever Luke Walker walked Brooks Robinson with the bases loaded. Alexander lost the shutout in the seventh when Willie Horton grounded a pinch-single to left after Gates Brown had doubled and advanced to third on a groundout. [The Sporting News]
