Jim Palmer won the 200th game of his career, pitching the Orioles to a 3-0 victory in the nightcap of a doubleheader, after the Indians took the opener, 4-3, in 10 innings. Carlos Lopez hit a two-run homer for the Orioles in the third inning of the lidlifter, but the Indians were leading, 3-2, before the Orioles tied the score in the sixth on a single by Ken Singleton and double by Lee May. In the 10th, Jim Norris drew a walk, raced to second on Buddy Bell's third single of the game and scored the Indians' winning run on a sacrifice fly by Johnny Grubb.
