A's Sweep Orioles as Blue and Hunter Hold Off Hitters
Oakland pitchers Vida Blue and Jim Hunter dominated Baltimore, each tossing a four-hitter in a doubleheader split that left the Orioles winless in both ends for the first time since 1969. Blue struck out nine in game two, boosting his streak to eight straight complete wins, while Palmer faltered in the seventh.

The day also saw Milwaukee topple Boston while Minnesota beat Washington in extra innings and other AL results.
