The Orioles offense was befuddled by Padres ace Blake Snell in a 5-2 rubber game loss on Wednesday night at Petco Park in San Diego.
Snell already has one Cy Young award, and he might be collected his second after this standout season with the Padres. Unfortunately, the Orioles were on the wrong end of yet another tremendous outing from the southpaw.
The Birds did manage to scratch across two runs against the Padres starter. In the first inning, Adley Rutschman led off with a single and later came home on an Anthony Santander sac fly. In the sixth, Ryan Mountcastle showed off his power yet again with a solo big fly to left-center field.
