TORONTO -- Manny Machado just kept running, and his hustle paid off on the basepaths on Friday night, as the O's infielder scored from first base on Chris Davis' routine third-inning groundout.

Machado, who had rounded second on Davis' out, drew a throw across the diamond from first baseman Justin Smoak that bounced out of catcher Russell Martin's glove on an attempted tag while he covered the bag. The ball skipped away from Martin and no one was covering the plate, leaving room for Machado to hustle home.
