Combining on a two-hitter, Steve Stone and Tippy Martinez pitched the Orioles to a 1-0 victory over the Mariners. The game's lone run came in the fourth inning when Rich Dauer smacked a leadoff double, advanced to third as Ken Singleton grounded out and scored when Eddie Murray bounced out to second base.
