Starting in place of Jim Palmer, who was scratched because of a sore right elbow, Sammy Stewart pitched a two-hitter as the Orioles defeated the Royals, 3-1. Al Cowens got both of the Royals' hits, including a homer in the fifth inning. The Orioles tied the score in their half on a walk to Gary Roenicke, single by Eddie Murray and sacrifice fly by Doug DeCinces.
