Scattering seven hits, Scott McGregor hurled the Orioles to a 2-1 decision over the White Sox. The Orioles registered both their tallies in the sixth inning. Kiko Garcia opened the frame by reaching first on first baseman Lamar Johnson's error, moved to third on an infield hit by Rich Dauer and scored as Al Bumbry bounced into a double play. Rick Dempsey kept the inning alive with a single and Ken Singleton then delivered a run-scoring double. [The Sporting News]
