Baltimore Gets Riveting Walk-Off Win
The Baltimore Orioles dealt the Minnesota Twins a 5-4 loss at Memorial Stadium. Jim Sundberg was the star on offense. He went 3-3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Baltimore reliever Bruce Sutter picked up the win to move to 2-1. Steve Howe suffered the loss. Baltimore now has a record of 11-13.

Christopher Clark was the walk-off hero for Baltimore. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Orioles designated hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring double to send the teams home.

"It's great when the crowd is energized," Sundberg said.
