Winning for only the second time this season, Ross Grimsley pitched the Orioles to a 7-0 victory over the Twins. The Orioles gave Grimsley four runs for working room in the third inning. After singles by Ken Singleton and Al Bumbry around a pass to Mark Belanger loaded the bases, Lee May hit a two-run single, Jim Northrup added a tally with a sacrifice fly and Don Baylor drove in a run with a double. Baylor also homered in the ninth inning. [The Sporting News]
