It was the 10th anniversary of the Robert Andino Game on Tuesday. The modern-day Orioles found a pretty appropriate way to commemorate it.
Ryan Mountcastle hit a towering two-run home run to kick start a sixth-inning rally, and the O’s came back to beat the Red Sox and Chris Sale 4-2.
There were no walk-offs and no wild celebrations in the infield like there were back on Sept. 28, 2011, and as far as I know, Andino wasn’t even in the ballpark, let alone in uniform. But still, this was pretty good. With Boston trailing in the race for the top Wild Card spot, the Yankees playing the Blue Jays and the Mariners taking on the A’s, the Red Sox could have really used a win tonight.
