BALTIMORE -- A little reprieve finally came for the Orioles on Wednesday night.
And with it came a reminder of just how depleted this Baltimore offense had been. Mark Trumbo, who was activated off the disabled list last week, delivered the two-out, two-run eighth-inning single that helped the O's snap a seven-game skid with a 5-3 win over the Royals at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
Trumbo's hit up the middle scored second baseman Jonathan Schoop, who went 2-for-4 with two runs in his second game since missing three weeks with an oblique injury.
