Orioles News
In a thrilling showdown against the Mets, the Orioles pulled off a wild 7-5 win in 11 innings, featuring Coby Mayo's stunning inside-the-park home run that overshadowed Pete Alonso's milestone 300th career homer. The game was a rollercoaster, reflecting a season where Baltimore has often been more entertaining than productive. Shane Baz, who left the game after taking a 105.1 mph comebacker to the elbow, faces uncertainty as the team deals with a growing injury list. With a 73-78 record and a run differential that has them outscored by five over the past week, the O's are playing for pride as they approach the finish line of a disappointing campaign. But last night’s drama at Citi Field reminded us that even in a largely lost season, baseball can still deliver moments that thrill.
