The Yankees edged the Orioles, 4-3, behind the combined five-hit pitching of Luis Tiant and Rudy May. Willie Randolph gave the Yankees a 3-2 lead in the fifth inning with a two-run homer after a single by Bucky Dent, and Reggie Jackson connected for a solo blast in the sixth. The victory was the Yankees' fourth straight over the Orioles this season, all by one run. [The Sporting News] |
