Schoop's slam epitomizes O's quick-strike offense

"No matter if we're losing by seven, six or five runs, we believe we can score the same amount of runs that they've got," Schoop said. "We believe that we have the team to do it."

On Saturday, the Orioles were only down two runs when their bats came to life with three in the sixth inning, one in the seventh and five in the eighth. Schoop led the way with a solo home run in the seventh and a grand slam in the eighth to turn an otherwise tight game into a rout. It was Schoop's second career grand slam and his seventh homer of the season.
