Orioles' offense picks up Tillman, series win
Mancini's 2-run home run BALTIMORE -- On Thursday, for the second straight start, Chris Tillman again didn't make it out of the second inning. But this time it didn't matter.
The Orioles' offense, a frustratingly inconsistent bunch through the season's first six weeks, broke out in a big way. Using homers from Manny Machado, Trey Mancini and Adam Jones, the O's erased an early deficit for a series-clinching 11-6 win over the Royals.
