A four-run outburst in the first inning triggered the Orioles to a 10-4 rout of the Mariners. After a leadoff single by Al Bumbry, a stolen base and two-out intentional walk to Eddie Murray, John Lowenstein clouted a three-run homer. Dan Graham then followed with another round-tripper. Jim Palmer, going 8 1/3 innings, picked up his 15th victory of the campaign. [The Sporting News]
