Pinch-hitting in the 10th inning, Terry Crowley came through with a homer to lift the Orioles to a 3-2 victory over the Twins. Gary Roenicke also homered for the Orioles, who tied the score at 2-2 with an unearned run in the seventh inning. Crowley's homer was only the second hit off Doug Corbett in four innings of relief pitching for the Twins. [The Sporting News]
