Orioles minor league recap 8/28: Norfolk comes from behind for walk-off win in extras

Trailing by a run in the late innings, Norfolk tied it in the ninth and scored the go-ahead run in the 10th. J.C. Escarra led off the ninth with a double and moved to third on a sacrifice bunt by Zach Jarrett. Then Ryan Ripken hit a sacrifice fly to bring Escarra home.

Norfolk walked it off the very next inning. Richie Martin was the runner on second to start the bottom of the 10th. He was joined on the base paths by Rylan Bannon and Robert Neustrom, who both reached via walk. Then Mason McCoy earned a bases-loaded free pass to bring Martin home and end the game.
