Minnesota 4 at New York 6

Texas 9 at Baltimore 8 (11)
-The Rangers are above .500 for the first time in the Reshuffled Deck – but it wasn’t easy. The Orioles rally from 6-2 down in the 9th and almost from 9-6 down in the 11th but Mickey Rivers threw Juan Beniquez out at home to finally stave off the Birds.
Kansas City 4 at Cleveland 6 (10)
-Dennis Leonard (17-8, 3.60) took a 4-1 lead into the bottom of the 9th but the Indians would tie it on a George Hendrick (12HR) three run home run and win it in the 10th on Oscar Gamble’s 30th home run and second of the game.
