After the crowd of 51,151 joined in a memorial tribute to Thurman Munson, the saddened Yankees lost to the Orioles, 1-0. Luis Tiant held the Orioles to only two hits but was beaten when John Lowenstein lashed a homer in the second inning. Al Bumbry had an infield single in the sixth for the Orioles' other hit. Scott McGregor held the Yankees to six hits before Tippy Martinez relieved after Lou Piniella led off the ninth inning with a single.
