Gary Roenicke grounded into a double play and flied out twice in his first three times at bat, but the Orioles' outfielder then smashed a two-run homer on his fourth trip to the plate in the eighth inning to beat the Twins, 3-1. Scott McGregor, who pitched a five-hitter, gave up the Twins' run on singles by Butch Wynegar and Ron Jackson around a sacrifice in the third. The Orioles tied the score in the fourth when Ken Singleton singled, took third on a single by Eddie Murray and scored as Roenicke hit into a twin killing.
