Machado powers Orioles offense past Rays

The O's got busy in the second when Jonathan Schoop doubled to left off Rays starter Jake Odorizzi to drive home their first run. Joey Rickard added a sacrifice fly, before Manny Machado belted a two-run homer to left-center field to put the Orioles up 4-0. They added an insurance run in the eighth when Machado scored on a wild pitch by Erasmo Ramirez. Machado finished 4-for-4 with two RBIs and two runs scored, just a triple shy of the cycle.

Corey Dickerson's third home run of the season, a solo shot in the fourth, cut the lead to 4-1, and Evan Longoria and Steve Pearce had RBI singles in the fifth to make it a one-run game.
