Baltimore Orioles Daily: Machado continues power surge as Birds split doubleheader

For a brief moment on Saturday, the Baltimore Orioles had something for which they had long hungered: their first four-game winning streak since last August. A solid MLB debut from rookie starter David Hess and another home run from Manny Machado propelled the Birds to victory in the first game of their doubleheader against the Tampa Bay Rays, winning 6-3.

It didn’t last, unfortunately. The Rays scored on all four of the Orioles pitchers in the later game, and while Trey Mancini did hit a home run, it was one of just four hits for the Birds.
