September 16, 1967 at Fenway Park
Orioles 4, Red Sox 1 (84-65)
Jim Lonborg failed to pick up his 21st win and while he wasn’t awful, it wasn’t enough for the Red Sox to remain in first place. Lonborg fell to 20-8 and he gave up two runs on nine hits and two walks with eight strikeouts in six innings of work.
The Red Sox managed just three hits in the entire game. One of those hits was a solo homer by Rico Petrocelli.
