Balboni Stars in 8-3 Rangers Win
The 1982 season is getting uglier for Baltimore.

Getting a good performance from first baseman Steve Balboni, the Texas Rangers defeated the Baltimore Orioles, 8-3. Balboni went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3 for the Rangers. Jeff Byrd, the winner, goes to 4-4. He allowed 2 runs on 6 hits, with 1 walk and 7 strikeouts over 7 innings.

Ernie Whitt, the 29-year old catcher , had a direct impact on the outcome. Whitt contributed a 2-run single in the top of the first inning to put Texas up, 3-0.

Whitt called the win "a lesson in teamwork."

The losing streak for Baltimore has now reached 7 games.
