Fergie Jenkins fired a two-hitter to outduel Mike Cuellar as Toby Harrah singled home the decisive run in the Rangers' 1-0 win over the Orioles. Jenkins didn't yield a hit until the sixth, when Elrod Hendricks opened with a double. The next three batters grounded out and the only other Baltimore hit was a pinch-single by Al Bumbry in the ninth. Lenny Randle singled to open Texas' sixth and was forced by Jim Fregosi. Jeff Burroughs and Harrah then rapped successive singles to plate Fregosi. [The Sporting News]
