Orioles crush losing streak on Chris Davis' walk-off homer in 11th

One swing won't cure all of the Orioles' problems, but as first baseman Chris Davis sent his second homer of the game Wednesday night deep into the center-field stands of Camden Yards, it gave the Orioles what they needed most right now.

A win.

Davis' solo homer in the bottom of the 11th inning off Rays reliever Matt Andriese gave the Orioles a 7-6 walk-off victory, snapping their six-game losing streak. The Orioles entered the night having lost 11 of their last 12, their playoff hopes in need of major help.

This team had struggled enough to get a lead, let alone win a game.
