The Baltimore Orioles defeated the Boston Red Sox with a score of 4-2, thanks to another stellar performance by pitcher Albert Suárez. Suárez delivered a scoreless start, allowing no runs over six innings while striking out six. Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson contributed to the Orioles’ victory with home runs. The win allowed Baltimore to split the four-game series with the Red Sox.
Despite the Red Sox pitcher Kutter Crawford’s efforts, allowing three runs in 5 1/3 innings, the team fell short in the game. Rutschman’s solo homer opened the scoring for the Orioles, and an error by the Red Sox defense led to additional runs for Baltimore. Henderson’s two-run homer sealed the victory for the Orioles.
The Orioles are now just a half-game behind the AL East-leading New York Yankees. The win was important for Baltimore as they continue to chase the division leader in the standings. The Red Sox will now face the Houston Astros in their upcoming series, while the Orioles will play against the New York Mets.
The game also saw some minor injuries, with Orioles’ Colton Cowser being hit by a pitch but managing to stay in the game. Overall, it was a well-contested game between the two teams, with the Orioles ultimately coming out on top.
