October 5, 1969  The Baltimore Orioles came from behind to defeat the Minnesota Twins 4-3 and take a commanding 2-0 lead in this 5 game ALCS. Baltimore trailed 3-2 in the 7th inning when they scored 2 runs off the Twins starter Jim Perry. With 2 outs, pinch hitter Dave May singled in the tieing run. Then Perry threw a wild pitch that allowed what proved to be the winning run to score. Baltimore starter Dave McNally got the win but was not at his sharpest early on. He only gave up 3 hits but walked 5, and a defensive lapse allowed a run to score. Pete Richert came on in the 9th to hold off a Twins threat and picked up his 1st save. The teams head to Minnesota for the next 2 scheduled games, but Baltimore can finish off this series with just 1 more win. Jim Kaat will start the next game for the Twins while the Orioles counter with Jim Palmer. |
