Homers by Charlie Spikes and John Ellis carried the Indians to a 3-1 victory over the Orioles, who scored their lone run on a round-tripper by Ken Singleton. Spikes connected for the circuit in the fifth inning. Singleton tied the score in the seventh. Ellis then supplied the winning blow, hitting his homer in the eighth after Rico Carty reached base with a double. [The Sporting News]
