Corbin Burnes turned in yet another terrific start, and the Orioles’ offense was full of firepower as the Birds clinched their first ever four-game sweep of the Rays at Tropicana Field with a 5-2 win on Monday night.
It took just one pitch and one swing for the Orioles to score their first run. Gunnar Henderson went deep for the 21st time this season to get the good guys out to an early 1-0 lead. It has to be tempting for Brandon Hyde to move Henderson down the lineup just a skosh to take advantage of that power, but at the same time he sets the table pretty well too.
