Orioles homer 3 more times in an 11
BALTIMORE (AP) — Gunnar Henderson, Jordan Westburg and Ryan O’Hearn homered, Grayson Rodriguez pitched six solid innings and the Baltimore Orioles trounced the Minnesota Twins 11-3 on Tuesday night.
Colton Cowser had two more hits for the Orioles, who have taken the first two games of this series. Rodriguez (3-0) allowed two runs and four hits. He walked three and struck out six.
It was the fourth straight game Baltimore homered at least three times, the first time the team has had a streak that long since 2013.
“It just feels like now we’re clicking, and this is the kind of nights that we can have,” Henderson said.
Cowser raised his average to .405. He scored the first run on James McCann’s two-out double in the second. Then Henderson followed with a drive to right off Chris Paddack (0-1) for his fifth homer this season, putting the Orioles up 3-0.
