NEW YORK -- Over the Orioles' recent three-week stretch, there hasn't been a lot to feel good about. But while the offense has come in spurts, the O's rotation finally got some reprieve Wednesday night from Ubaldo Jimenez.
Jimenez became the first Orioles starter in 11 games to go more than 5 2/3 innings, retiring 13 of the final 14 batters he faced in a seven-inning outing that highlighted the 5-3 win over the Yankees that secured a series victory for the O's and kept New York from gaining ground on first-place Toronto in the division.
