Orioles win on error in the 10th inning

For the second time in as many days, the Orioles used some late-inning magic to extend the best record in the American League.

The Orioles strung together singles by center fielder Adam Jones and second baseman Jonathan Schoop in the bottom of the 10th inning, then Jones scored on a fielding error on a chopper back to pitcher Jordan Lyles to give the Orioles a 3-2 win over the Colorado Rockies Monday at Camden Yards.

The victory gave the Orioles (58-40) five straight, and brought them to a season-high 18 games over .500.

On Sunday, it was outfielder Nolan Reimold whose pinch-hit, walk-off home run gave them a 5-3 win over the Cleveland Indians.
