Jim Palmer came out ahead in a duel with Dock Ellis and won for the 14th time this season when the Orioles defeated the Yankees, 4-1. The Orioles' first two tallies were unearned, but they picked up an earned run on a double by Lee May and single by Tony Muser in the fourth inning before capping their scoring with a homer by Al Bumbry in the seventh.
