BALTIMORE — Dean Kremer pitched seven innings of two-run ball, Adley Rutschman extended his hitting streak to a career-best 11 games and the Baltimore Orioles defeated the New York Yankees 4-2 on Tuesday night.
Baltimore won the first two games of a four-game series between the AL East's top teams and opened a one-game AL East lead, the largest this season for the defending division champion.
Juan Soto hit a 447-foot homer and Austin Wells also had a solo drive for the Yankees, who have lost four of six and scored just two runs in the series.
