The Orioles tied the game against Stan Bahnsen in the fifth on Bobby Grich's single and Dave Johnson's triple and scored the winning run in the sixth on consecutive singles by Paul Blair, Boog Powell and Merv Rettenmund. Kansas City got Nelson the only run he needed against Detroit in the first inning on Amos Oti's bunt single, a stolen base and John Mayberry's infield hit, which loser Bill Slayback threw wild to first base.

The pesky ones will take a half-swing and get a hit. "When you can't get the breaking ball over you'd better challenge them. I don't know what was the matter with my breaking stuff but I had a good fast ball so I figured I might as well come in with it." Boston's McGlothen, a 22- year-old right-hander, held the Twins to Eric Soderholm's doubie in the second inning and singles by Danny Thompson in the third. Rookie shortstop Juan Beniquez accounted for one of the runs off loser Ray Corbin with his first major league homer.

"I'm aware of what I can do and have confidence now," he said. "I like to throw the fast ball and challenge hitters, but I'm not afraid to throw a breaka ing pitch in any situation." About the only fireworks were in Oakland, where Sal Bando hammered a grand slam home run off New York's Mel Stottlemyre in the fourth inning and the A's put on a gaudy pyrotechnic display after the game. Bando's seventh home run of the season and fifth career grand slam followed Joe Rudi's double and walks to Mike Epstein and Bill Voss. Cleveland's Kilkenny suffered a split middle finger on his pitching hand fielding Ted Kubiak's smash in the third inning but Tidrow came on to finish the shutout of the Rangers for his first win since May 17.

"I was completely shocked and still am," said Mucks, "We had lived together and got to know each other extremely well.

"I've watched Tim progress since his freshman year and he had every sign great future. I'm just shocked."

But his biggest contribution was a ready-made smile and a jiving, "Hey, Man, what's happening" type of personality which kept the entire team loose. made everyone feel easy," said co-captain Keith Nosbusch.

"It's a terrible loss to the team not only as a football player, but more importantly as an individual. He was one helluva guy." Jim Mott (sports information director) who has seen many fine athletes pass during his tenure, was especially impressed with Kosek's sincerity and warmth. "He didn't have an enemy on the field," said Mott. "He was team leader and the players looked up to himm He was an outstanding young man. "When I heard about the tragedy, I was very shook up.
