Wrapping up the weekend set in Charm City, the A’s and O’s battle in the first game of a double dip after splitting the first two. Jim Nash takes the Spaulding for the Midwest team looking to build on his already impressive start to the season. Steve Barber hasn’t faired as well, hoping today’s game reverses that trend

One out into the first inning, rookie Rick Monday cracked his first career homer, timing a Barber Hester perfectly putting the guests ahead. Bottom 1, the Orioles got it back as Aparicio and Russ Snyder singled and Frank Robinson drew a walk. B. Robby bounced into a double play scoring the tying run. Top 2, A’s went up again. Two out double by Dick Green set the table for Jim Nash to help himself with an RBI single. Top 4, Kaycee grabbed another tally on a solo shot by Green. Bottom 5, the home club alternated outs and base runners leaving two stranded. Jim Nash got in a roll, hanging zeroes on the O’s thru 8. Top 9, Bert Campaneris doubled in an insurance run making it 4-1. Bottom 9 a walk and single ended Nash’s outing, letting Tony Pierce eventually nail down the win.
