A home-run barrage by the Orioles upended the Twins, 8-6, ending Minnesota's eight-game winning streak. Ken Singleton slammed a solo blast in the first inning and added a two-run round-tripper in the third. Rich Dauer belted a bases-empty blow in the fifth and Doug DeCinces clouted a two-run smash in the sixth off reliever Johnny Sutton.
