Win Makes Baltimore 57-40
Powered by Eric Owens, the Baltimore Orioles downed the Anaheim Angels, 6-5. Owens was 2-4 with a home run, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2 for the Orioles. Steve Sparks picked up the save for Baltimore, his 10th of the year. The Orioles sit in first place in the AL East Division with a record of 57-40.

Baltimore took a 5-4 lead on Owens's 4th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which he hit off Roger Clemens in the top of the sixth, propelled Baltimore to the win.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Owens. "And not try to do too much."
