Santander’s 2-run homer caps Orioles’ rally over Tigers
Anthony Santander’s two-run homer capped a five-run seventh inning in which the Baltimore Orioles rallied for a 7-4 win over the Detroit Tigers on Thursday.
Joey Ortiz became the first Orioles player to drive in three runs in his MLB debut since Don Baylor on Sept. 18, 1970. Baltimore improved to 9-1 in its last 10 games.
Detroit, which fell to 1-12 against AL East teams, left 15 runners on base. The bases were loaded with no one out in the second — Jonathan Schoop hit into a run-scoring double play and Zach McKinstry popped out. Eric Haase made it 3-0 with a two-run single in the third.
