The Orioles handed Nolan Ryan his fifth straight setback by scoring three times in the 10th inning to defeat the Angels, 8-5. Jim Palmer, who started for the Orioles, was one out away from victory when the Angels rallied to tie the score with a two-run single by Dave Chalk. Doyle Alexander relieved, struck out Ellie Rodriguez and wound up the winner.

In the 10th, Broks Robinson drew a pass from Ryan. When Elrod Hendricks bunted, John Doherty threw wildly to second, trying for the forceout. Both runners advanced an extra base on the error and scored when Mark Belanger singled. Belanger later crossed the plate with the last run on a sacrifice fly by Bobby Grich. [The Sporting News]
