Orioles News
Gunnar Henderson exploded for two homers and a triple, leading the Orioles to a hard-fought 8-5 victory over the Athletics and completing a three-game sweep. This win showcases Baltimore's resilience, as they rallied from a 5-1 deficit, a feat they would have struggled with earlier in the season. With a recent record of 5-2, the Orioles are showing signs of life, clawing closer to .500 at 67-69. Meanwhile, the team dodged a major scare when Pete Alonso was hit in the helmet during the game, but thankfully escaped serious injury. The offense is heating up, and the run differentials speak volumes, with the O's outscoring their opponents by 13 runs over the last week. Baltimore is building momentum, and if they keep this up, a playoff push might not be out of reach.
