Naylor HR and 6 RBIs highlights Guardians’ power surge in 12-8 win over Orioles

John Naylor homered, had a career-high four hits and drove in six runs to highlight a rare power display by the Cleveland Guardians in a 12-8 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday.

Josh Bell and Gabriel Arias also went deep for the Guardians, who had gone 264 consecutive plate appearances without a long ball before Naylor went deep in the fourth inning. Cleveland notched season highs in runs and hits (17) while scoring in double figures for the first time in a nine-inning game.

Naylor doubled in the third inning, hit a two-run homer in the fourth, added a three-run double in the fifth and tacked on an RBI single in the seventh.
