April 30 at the White Sox

Opponent: Chicago White Sox
Outcome: L
Score: 1-4
Streak: L1
Record: 1-22
Rank: 7th
GB: 15.5

For the fifth consecutive game the Orioles scored first although unlike the previous four games they didn't do it until the second inning.  Tito Landrum hit a one out triple and then scored on Carl Nichols' sacrifice fly.  The lead didn't last long - Ivan Calderon led off the bottom of the second with a home run to tie the game up and a double by Greg Walker and a single by Carlton Fisk but the White Sox up 2-1.  The White Sox scored their third run two innings later when Ken Williams tripled and Dan Pasqua reached on an error by second baseman Pete Stanicek which brought Williams in with an unearned run.  Chicago scored their fourth and final run in the bottom of the eighth when Gary Redus hit a triple (the third one of the game between the two teams) and Ozzie Guillen brought him in with a sacrifice fly.

The Orioles wrapped up the month of April with a 1-22 record.  They were outscored by their opponents 133 to 54.
