The Orioles streak of scoring first that had gone on for five consecutive games ended early in this game.  For the second time in three outings, Orioles starter Mike Morgan was unable to get out of the first inning.  Lance Johnson led off the bottom of the first with a double.  Ozzie Guillen laid down a bunt to move Johnson to third but he ended up beating it out for an infield single.  Harold Baines grounded a single up the middle to bring in Johnson and Ivan Calderon followed up with a three run home run (his second home run against the Orioles in as many days).  Morgan stuck out Greg Walker for the first out of the inning but was lifted after Dan Pasqua singled and was replaced by Bill Scherrer.  Scherrer got the Orioles out of the inning without giving up any more runs but ran into problems in the bottom of the third.  A walk to Calderon and a single by Walker started the inning.  With one out Mark Salas doubled to knock in Calderon and Ken Williams followed up with a single that brought in Walker and Salas.  The score was now 7-0 after three innings.  The Orioles were able to claw back a little, scoring one run in the fourth on a sacrifice fly from Keith Hughes to bring in Eddie Murray and two more in the seventh on a single by Fred Lynn and back to back doubles by Hughes and Terry Kennedy.
