The Orioles beat the Mets 5-4 in a back and forth game ended in pure elation with a walk off home run from Henry Urrutia for his first career major league dinger.
The Orioles had somehow lost nine straight games to the New York Mets over the course of the last five years coming into the night. That streak was ceremoniously ended tonight as the Orioles won 5-4.
The game started off poorly enough for the Orioles. Ubaldo Jimenez, tonight's Orioles starter, actually managed to not give up a lead off home run to Curtis Granderson, but quickly amended the situation by giving up a solo home run to Daniel Murphy.
