Just earlier today on Camden Chat, Jones was the plurality choice for the most disappointing Oriole of the season - and with good reason. He has been disappointing. That didn't matter in Tuesday's game against the Twins. Jones, batting with two outs and two men on in the ninth inning, was placed in that spot because Minnesota chose to intentionally walk Manny Machado to bring up the slumping Jones.
Jones made them pay. He ripped a two run single that put the O's up 5-3. With Zach Britton waiting in the wings, that's all you need.
