"O's 6 run first us too much for last place Blue Jays"

Rodrigo Lopez came into this game without a win and like his teamate Sidney Ponson is play to stay a starter. Lopez had high hopes as the Orioles scored a whopping 6 runs in the first! All runs off of RBI singles or doubles. The Jays tried to come back with a run in the bottom of the 1st. The Orioles scored one run in the third and the fourth. An 8-1 lead almost ensured a victory to the o's but the Jays would make it very close. Two runs in the 7th and 3 runs in the 8th made the orioles 7 run lead shrink to only 2! Luckilly, a Javi Lopez 3 run homer gave the o's a secure 5 run lead and a win.

"Orioles score 4 runs late to pick up the victory"

The Orioles came into this game 4 games back from first place and needed a win against the last place Jays. The Orioles got a run in the first of an RBI single from Melvin Mora. In the bottom of the third the Orioles experienced their third injury of the season.Jay Gibbons was running after a foul ball an he tore his knee ACL causing him to be out for 96 days! Later in the inning Alex Rios doubled in a run to tie it. In the bottom of the 5th Greg Myers hit a homer of the right-center field wall to give the Jays their first lead of the series. The Orioles tied it up once again in the 6th with a RBI single by Miguel Tejada. With a runner on first and second with one out Tejada grounded a ball to the shortstop that should've been an easy inning ending double play but instead the ball went wide of the second baseman and a lead taking run scored. They scored 3 more runs that inning and the Orioles went on to win 6-2.

"O's complete sweep over last place Jays!"
The Orioles needed to complete the sweep of the Jays to stay in second place. Sidney Ponson made his start after his last one was skipped because of his poor performannce. In the top of the 4th David Segui hit a sac fly to drive in Rafael Palmeiro giving Ponson some breathing room. The very next inning the Orioles added two more runs off a 2 RBI double. The only run scored for the Jays was a sole home run by Orlando Hudson in the top of the 7th. B.J. Ryan pitched a 1-2-3 ninth and got his 5th save of the year. The have a 3 game series at Fenway next that will make a big difference in the standings.

"Both teams need extras to score a run!!!"
Last time the Orioles had to face knuckleballer Tim Wakefield they were shutout seven to nothing. Wakefield's slow pitching always seems to catch the Orioles off guard. No one scored until the elventh inning leaving the game very uneventful. With two outs in the bottom of the 11th and John Maine pitching Trot Nixon hit a ball at third baseman Melvin Mora that got past Mora for an error. That error decided the game as the next batter Jason Varitek hit one over the green monster to end the game. In an interview Melvin Mora responded " Everyone will make errors and today was my day I know I let the team and I will try to make it up to them." The Orioles play the Red Sox tomorrow in game 2 of a 3 game series.
