The Brewers used a blast and a bunt to pin a 3-2 defeat on the Orioles. After the Birds took a 2-0 lead in the first on an RBI double by Rich Dauer and run-scoring single by Eddie Murray, Ben Oglivie tied the game in the fourth with a two-run homer.

In the eighth, Paul Molitor walked and was seemingly picked off by Mike Flanagan, but first baseman Murray threw the ball into left field, allowing the runner to advance to third. Robin Yount then brought home the winning run with a squeeze bunt. [The Sporting News]
