Yennier Cano filled in for closer Félix Bautista in the ninth inning and not much changed.
It ended with another Baltimore victory.
Cano struck out two in the ninth and earned his first career save, and the Orioles held on for their seventh straight victory, 5-4 over the Boston Red Sox on Monday night. After Danny Coulombe allowed a leadoff walk, Cano came on and balked the runner to second before striking out Kiké Hernández and Triston Casas and retiring Jarren Duran on a lineout.
“It was a bit nerve wracking. I've never come into a major league game in the ninth inning trying to close it out,” Cano said through a translator.
