Ben Oglivie went 5-for-5 with two doubles and Eduardo Rodriguez (9-13, 3.53) struck out eleven in eight innings. Wayne Garland (15-8, 3.05) continues to fade down the stretch for the O’s, he was shelled for six runs in three innings
Boston 5 at Cleveland 6

New York 3 at Detroit 1
-Luis Tiant (15-9, 3.00) and Dick Tidrow (37Sv, 2.11) combine on a four hitter and Walt Williams hit his 10th home run of the season
