Orioles Sweep Indians in Twin Bill to Move Up AL Standings

Baltimore Orioles swept a doubleheader from the Cleveland Indians, winning 3-4 in the first game due to a late error by Vic Wertz and 4-3 in the second as Jim Busby snared a potential homer. Dick Brown and Joe Carter homered for Cleveland. Zuverink and Lehman held off late rallies. Wertz's error in the 15th and Busby’s defensive play framed a frus trating day for both clubs with stranded runners and a rare triple play by Cleveland.
