The Baltimore Orioles dealt the Oakland Athletics a 8-5 loss at Oakland Coliseum. Kent Hrbek was the star on offense. He was 2-4 with a home run, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. Dwight Gooden, credited with the win, is now 13-7. He allowed 5 runs on 7 hits in 8 innings. Roger McDowell, credited with the save, is now 28 for 28 in save opportunities.

The Baltimore win was a team effort. It included major contributions from, among others, Matt Nokes. In the top of the second, the Baltimore catcher came to bat and hit a 2-run home run. It staked his team to a 2-0 lead.

"We'll enjoy this win," said Hrbek. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."

The first-place Orioles, at 71-45, now lead their division by 9½ games.
