Tuesday night the Orioles proved that almost no lead is safe against this team. Almost. After falling behind 7-0, the Orioles mounted a spirited comeback in the 9th inning, but ultimately fell short in an 8-6 loss to the Red Sox.
Trailing 8-1 entering the 9th, Gunnar Henderson led off the inning with an opposite-field HR into the Orioles’ bullpen. Ramón Urías and Terrin Vavra each singled on either side of an Adam Frazier flyout, giving the O’s two on and one out. Jorge Mateo then hit a ball back up the middle that was knocked down by Boston pitcher Kaleb Ort.
