Orioles Win Another One
Detroit designated hitter Frank Howard had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 7-5, to Baltimore at Tiger Stadium. Howard went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Jerome Williams got the win, improving to 1-0. He worked 7 innings, giving up 5 runs on 8 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 2. Chris Sale closed the door for Baltimore, picking up his 5th save of the year.

Baltimore used the timely hitting of Hector Villanueva to capture the win. The catcher stroked a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Orioles on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but he made it count.

"We'll enjoy this win for now, but it's just one," Villanueva told local reporters. "We've got to keep it going."

The win brings the Orioles to 10-5, a promising start as the team looks to return to the playoffs.
