Ross Grimsley, who won 14 games with the Reds as his previous major league high in 1972, matched that total by pitching the Orioles to a 1-0 victory over the Royals. Grimsley allowed only three hits. The Orioles, who collected 10 off Bruce Dal Canton, scored the game's run in the fifth inning on a single by Brooks Robinson, pass to Earl Williams and single by Rich Coggins.
