The Orioles handed Nolan Ryan his eighth straight defeat, routing the Angels' ace in the second inning en route to posting an 8-3 victory. The Orioles scored four runs off Ryan in the first, one crossing the plate on a single by Tommy Davis and two on a single by Brooks Robinson.

Davis then applied the kayo blow in the second, hitting a homer with a man on base. Davis added his fourth RBI of the game with a single in the fourth. Don Baylor wrapped up the Orioles' scoring with a homer in the fifth. [The Sporting News]
