Cecil Cooper drilled a grand-slam homer to cap a six-run fourth inning as the Brewers completed a three-game sweep of the Orioles with a 13-5 pasting. The grand slam was the Brewers' third in as many games. In the three-game bombardment of the Orioles, the Brewers got 38 hits and piled up 40 runs. [The Sporting News]
