PITTSBURGH AT BALTIMORE Pirates......... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 0 9 3 Orioles......... 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 - 2 8 0 Win:Cuellar(3-0) Loss:Veale(1-1) Mike Cuellar shutout Pittsburgh while allowing the Baltimore bullpen a day-off as the Baltimore Orioles defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates by the score of 2 to 0 at Memorial Stadium. Cuellar(3-0) put on a good performance. He didn't allow much, just 9 hits and no walks in 9 innings seeing his ERA drop from 1.53 to 1.01. Pittsburgh threatened in the 9th but Baltimore was able to put down the rally. Bob Veale(1-1) took the loss. Despite losing, he struckout 10 Baltimore batters in 7 and 2/3 innings. Earl Weaver was in a talkative mood in the clubhouse, 'Great game! If only we could win all of the close ones - wouldn't that be nice! Since that's not going to happen, I think I'll savor this one for a little while.'
