. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Orioles' pitchers walked 13 Tigers, but Baltimore still prevailed, 8-4, with all their runs being driven in by designated hitters. A pinch-hit grand slam by Pat Kelly in the sixth inning was the big blow. The Birds loaded the bases on singles by Ken Singleton and Eddie Murray and a walk to Gary Roenicke before Kelly unloaded on a 3-1 pitch. Terry Crowley drilled a three-run homer in the fourth inning.
