Orioles rock 'em, sock 'em, knock 'em and chase Lynn from start

BALTIMORE • They didn't do it as fast as they did against Adam Wainwright, but they were no less thorough against Lance Lynn.

The Orioles hit two more home runs in the fifth inning -- and mixed in a couple triples for good measure, literally, more than 2,000 feet of hits -- and that has opened up the game 7-2 for them ... oh, make that 8-2. The O's just scored again in the sixth inning.

The four-run fifth sent Lynn to the dugout without completing the fifth inning.

Not ideal for a team that doesn't have a long reliever Sunday.
