Posting his sixth shutout of the season and 51st of his career, Jim Palmer tossed a three-hitter in hurling the Orioles to an 11-0 romp over the A's. Ken Singleton and Lee May, with three hits each, led the 15-hit attack against three Oakland pitchers. Doug DeCinces doubled home two runs in the first inning when the Orioles scored four times and singled another across in the five-run third.
