Ken Landreaux, who flied out twice and hit two infield grounders, was stopped on his 31-game batting streak by the pitching of Scott McGregor as the Orioles breezed to an 11-1 victory over the Twins. Landreaux's streak was the longest in the A.L. since Dom DiMaggio hit in 34 straight games in 1949. Rich Dauer led the Orioles' attack with three singles and a sacrifice fly, driving in four runs. Lee May contributed a homer. [The Sporting News]
