Jumping on reliever Don Stanhouse for three runs in the eighth inning, the Indians defeated the Orioles, 7-5. Stanhouse, who was the fifth hurler used by the Orioles, walked Johnny Grubb to open the stanza.

Larry Lintz, newly signed by the Indians, ran for Grubb, stole second and scored on a double by Andre Thornton. After Ron Hassey flied out, Duane Kuiper doubled to drive in Thornton before scoring himself on a single by Tom Veryzer. [The Sporting News]
