Jim Palmer worked around 5 free passes by allowing just two hits and Merv Rettenmund slammed a roundtripper as Baltimore defeated the New York Mets at Shea Stadium in Game 1 of the 1970 World Series. Rettenmund got his second start of the postseason with lefty Jerry Koosman on the mound and continued to make the most of his platoon opportunities, going 4 for 5 with two doubles in addition to the home run. Koosman struggled throughout and was fortunate to strand several runners, allowing 7 hits and 6 walks in just five innings of work. The Orioles left 13 men on base for the game. However, Palmer took advantage of two twin killings when the Metropolitans did get a rally started, and cruised the rest of the way to save the bullpen arms for another day to even his postseason record at 1-1.
