Orioles Sneak Past Brewers, 9-8
In a high-scoring contest between Baltimore and Milwaukee, second baseman Mark Belanger was a difference-maker. Belanger, who is tied for 6th in the AL in stolen bases with 10, earned player of the game honors in the 9-8 Baltimore win. He was 4 for 5 with 4 singles and a walk. He scored 2 times. The third-place Orioles improved to 56-57.

The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Billy L Williams came to bat in the top of the 11th. Facing Milwaukee pitcher Jim Kaat, he hit a 2-0 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Baltimore on top, 9-8.

"We'll pop the top on a cold one and get back to work tomorrow," Williams said.
