. . . where the 1970s live forever!

John Hale, who entered the game as a defensive replacement in the outfield, singled in the ninth inning to give the Mariners a 4-3 victory over the Orioles. Bruce Bochte hit a two-run homer in the eighth to put the Mariners ahead, 3-2, but the Orioles tied the score in the ninth on a double by Al Bumbry and single by pinch-hitter Terry Crowley.

In the M's half, Dan Meyer singled and Bill Stein sacrificed. After a pass to pinch-hitter Bob Stinson, Larry Milbourne, batting for Mario Mendoza, singled to load the bases before Hale came to bat and singled to center field. [The Sporting News]
