With Mike Flanagan tossing a two-hitter, the Orioles handed the Tigers their first shutout of the season, 2-0. Rick Dempsey cracked a homer in the fifth inning and the other run scored in the sixth on a bases-loaded walk to Lee May. The Tigers' hits were singles by Rusty Staub in first and Ron LeFlore in the ninth.
