Coming off the best week of his big league career, rookie Gunnar Henderson came up with the perfect encore.
Henderson kept up his torrid hitting spree with his first career grand slam, one of four home runs launched by the Baltimore Orioles in an 11-6 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday night.
It was the fifth straight win for the surprising Orioles, who climbed 18 games over .500 (42-24) for the first time since 2016, when they last reached the playoffs. Tampa Bay (48-21), which leads second-place Baltimore in the AL East, is the only team in the majors with a better record.
