Rutschman, Mountcastle, Hays homer as Orioles beat A's 5-1

Adley Rutschman homered for the second straight game, Kyle Gibson earned his third victory in as many starts with Baltimore, and the Orioles defeated the Oakland Athletics 5-1 on Monday night.

Ryan Mountcastle and Austin Hays also went deep for Baltimore, which improved to 4-0 in series openers this season.

The long balls coincided with the Orioles debuting a dugout celebration in which each player who homered took a drink from a hose attached to a funnel.

“We want to make sure it’s rebranded a little bit: It’s a homer hose, not a dong bong,” Gibson said.
