After being shutout by Gaylord Perry in the first game, 3-0, the Orioles put together four successive singles with two out in the ninth inning to beat the Indians, 3-2, in the second game of a twi-night doubleheader. Perry yielded only five hits in the lidlifter. Jack Brohamer homered for the Indians in the third inning and their two other runs counted in the sixth on a double by Ken Berry, single by manager Frank Robinson and double by Rico Carty.

In the nightcap, Paul Blair homered for the Orioles in the fourth, but the Indians tied the score on a double by Oscar Gamble and single by Carty in the eighth before going ahead in the ninth with singles by Leron Lee and Brohamer and an infield out by Frank Duffy. Coming back in their half, the Orioles chased Dick Bosman after two out with singles by Ken Singleton and Elrod Hendricks. Tom Buskey, relieving, could not get the final out. Jim Northrup singled to drive in the tying run and Al Bumbry followed with a single for the winning tally. [The Sporting News]
