BALTIMORE — Just when it seemed as if Tim Beckham couldn't possibly do anything more marvelous for the Baltimore Orioles, the spunky shortstop provided the team with a milestone shot.
And then, just five games into his tenure with Baltimore, Beckham made his first curtain call.
Beckham hit the Orioles' 10,000th home run, the last of three by Baltimore on Saturday night in a 5-2 victory over the Detroit Tigers.
Welington Castillo put the Orioles in front with his 11th home run, an opposite-field drive to right in the seventh inning on the third pitch thrown by Joe Jimenez (0-1).
