Orioles capitalize on late wild pitches to beat Yankees, 4-3, and keep .500 hopes alive

The Orioles and Yankees played what was in many ways a wild game on Saturday night, so it's fitting that the Orioles plated the winning run courtesy of two wild pitches, setting up a 4-3 win.

There aren't many things better in the sphere of being an Orioles fan than a day where the Orioles play the Yankees twice and beat them twice. That is the exact caper the team pulled off on Saturday, following up a 9-2 victory earlier with a 4-3 win in the nightcap. The O's took advantage of two late wild pitches to score the decisive fourth run in the eighth inning of the game.
