Baltimore lefty Mike Cuellar was named MVP of the 1970 American League playoffs. Cuellar earned the victory in each of his two starts, including tossing 7-1/3 shutout innings in the clinching game 4 of the series. Cuellar finished the series with a 2.57 ERA and 12 strikeouts over 14 innings.
Donn Clendenon led the way for New York as they upset a Reds team that won 102 regular season games in the National League playoffs. Clendenon homered twice and drove in 6 runs as the Mets took the first two games of the series on the road. By the time the smoke cleared at Riverfront Stadium, the righty slugger was 4 for 9 and the Mets headed home just one win away from the franchise's first ever World Series birth, which they accomplished in game 4.

Palmer spins two hit gem as O's take series opener
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.

WEB GEMS- Bot 11th: Dave Johnson robbed Tom Tischinski of a base hit.
The Baltimore Orioles edged the Minnesota Twins in 12 innings at Metropolitan
Stadium by the score of 5 to 4.
The score was knotted at 4 after nine innings. Baltimore was victorious in
the 12th inning. Terry Crowley cracked a solo homerun (his 1st of the
season). This was a game of many highs and lows for the home town fans, as
the lead kept changing - 5 times in all.
The winning pitcher was Marcelino Lopez(1-0) who allowed no runs in 1 inning.
Lopez got help from Eddie Watt who earned his 2nd save. The loss was charged
to Stan Williams(0-1) in relief.
