. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Eddie Murray hit a homer and scored again after being safe on an error to account for two of the Orioles' runs in a 4-2 victory over the Mariners. After Leroy Stanton homered for the Mariners in the fourth inning to tie the score at 1-1, Murray came back with his round-tripper in the Orioles' half. Murray reached base on an error in the sixth and scored on a triple by Doug DeCinces. Pat Kelly added a run by lofting a sacrifice fly. [The Sporting News]
