As goes Adam Jones, so go the Orioles. He delivered a late home run to break a tie against the Astros and Zach Britton got his first ever five-out save to close the door on the O's losing streak with a 3-2 win.
When you've lost five games in a row and are trying to avoid losing a sixth in a row, you've got to try something different. Orioles manager Buck Showalter decided one thing he could do differently was to be ejected in the second inning of the game. Home plate umpire Brian Gorman had an absurd strike zone and Showalter went out to let him know about it.
