It took them 12 innings to do it, but the Orioles ended their season-long five-game losing streak Sunday afternoon with a 6-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays at the Rogers Centre.
The Orioles will leave Canada having reclaimed first place in the American League East while also avoiding a three-game sweep here in Toronto, where they entered the day having lost five of six this season and allowing an average of 7.5 runs per game.
The Orioles' bullpen kept the Blue Jays bats in check and second baseman Jonathan Schoop broke a 2-2 tie with his 11th game-winning RBI of the season, hitting a run-scoring single off Blue Jays left-hander Franklin Morales with one out in the 12th to score Pedro Alvarez from second base.
