Riding the 3-hit performance of center fielder John Milner, the Baltimore Orioles got a road win against the Oakland Athletics, 9-6, in Game 2 of the League Championship Series today. Milner was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Orioles, who now lead the best-of-5 series, 2 games to 0.

The Orioles took a 4-0 lead in the top of the second inning. Facing Oakland hurler Francis Callahan with two outs, Milner hit a 2-run single.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Milner.

Game 3 is scheduled for Saturday at Memorial Stadium 1976-1991 in Baltimore.
