Bill Monbouquette(18-7) thrilled the fans at Memorial Stadium as he crafted a
no-hit masterpiece against the St. Louis Cardinals.  The Baltimore Orioles
won by a final score of 3 to 0.

Monbouquette was obviously at the top of his game as he set the St. Louis
batters down like so many dominoes.  He walked 4 St. Louis batters.  The
tension started to build around the 6th inning.  By the 9th inning the crowd
was electrified.  Baltimore had 7 hits for the afternoon.  

Don Lee(10-8) was given the loss.  'Not in my wildest dreams did I think this
would happen!' Monbouquette said as he stood at home plate to salute the
fans.  'Once I got into the later innings, I decided to challenge every
hitter, and that turned out to be the right decision!'
