After being given a two-run lead by his Orioles' teammates in the first inning, Wayne Garland defeated the Indians, 2-1, for his eighth win without a loss. The Orioles capitalized on three stolen bases in their scoring. Al Bumbry led off with a single and pilfered second. After Paul Blair walked, both runners pulled a double steal. Reggie Jackson then grounded out, scoring Bumbry, and Lee May singled to drive in Blair. The Indians' run came in the sixth and was batted in by Buddy Bell. [The Sporting News]
