## Resource

THE ORIOLES ARE BACK IN THE WIN COLUMN! Baltimore outlasted the Athletics 4-3 in 10 innings in West Sacramento, delivering a gritty, high-energy road win that felt like a game this team absolutely had to have. Coby Mayo came through with the go-ahead RBI single to the opposite field in the top of the 10th, and Christian Encarnacion-Strand immediately added insurance with an opposite-field RBI single of his own. Then Alex Hoppe slammed the door, earning his first career save as an Oriole. But this was not just another extra-inning win. Blaze Alexander made his long-awaited return after missing time with a non-displaced fracture in his left hand. Alexander, who hit .312 before the All-Star break, went 1-for-4 and started at shortstop while Gunnar Henderson was out. The Orioles went 19-18 without Blaze, while Encarnacion-Strand’s breakout at third base helped keep Baltimore afloat—so what does Alexander’s return mean for the infield moving forward? Dylan Beavers set the tone early with a huge two-out, two-strike RBI single in the second inning. Carlos Narváez then reached on a costly Athletics error by left-hander Jacob Lopez, helping another run come home in a bizarre sequence around the first-base bag. And Brandon Young? He was outstanding. Young gave Baltimore seven innings of one-run baseball, allowing only a Jonah Heim solo homer in the seventh. Rico Garcia could not hold the 2-1 lead in the eighth, but the Orioles responded when it mattered most—and found a way to win a tense game on the road. Luke Slabaugh breaks down the Orioles’ extra-inning victory, Mayo’s clutch at-bat, Encarnacion-Strand’s continued impact, Alexander’s return, Young’s strong start, Hoppe’s milestone save, and what this win means for Baltimore going forward.
