A two-run homer by Reggie Jackson and the pitching of Jim Palmer carried the Orioles to a 4-3 victory over the Royals. Palmer needed help from reliever Tippy Martinez in the eighth before becoming the American League's first 13-game winner. George Brett, with two doubles and two singles, had four hits in a game for the fifth time this season.
