Scattering six hits, Dennis Martinez pitched the Orioles to a 4-1 decision over the Angels. Eddie Murray broke a 1-1 tie with a solo homer in the fourth inning, and the Orioles added a run in the fifth on a walk to Mark Belanger and run-scoring double by Al Bumbry. The final tally came in the seventh on a double by Doug DeCinces and single by Rick Dempsey. [The Sporting News]
