Henderson, Twins Sink Orioles Again in Game 2
The Minnesota Twins defeated the Baltimore Orioles, 15-14 in Game 2 of the Divisional Series today. Earning player of the game honors was right fielder Dave Henderson, who was 3-6 with 2 home runs and a double, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 5. The win moves Minnesota into a 2-0 lead in the series.

Had John Shelby not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Shelby hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 15-14, in favor of the Twins.

Henderson called the triumph "a good team win."

Game 3 is set to be played Wednesday, October 5th, 1983 at Metropolitan Stadium. The scheduled starters for the game are Scott McGregor for Baltimore and J R Richard for Minnesota.
