The four-hit pitching of Scott McGregor and the slugging of Lee May, who knocked in four runs with two homers and a single, provided the Orioles with a 5-1 victory over the Rangers. Rich Dauer also homered for the Orioles. The Rangers' lone run off McGregor, who hurled the route for the first time this season, came in the eighth inning on a single by Toby Harrah and double by Bump Wills. [The Sporting News]
