Orioles Surge Past Yankees, Snapping 5-Game Losing Streak

NEW YORK (AP) — Adam Jones hit a go-ahead home run, Andrew Cashner pitched six strong innings and the Baltimore Orioles snapped a five-game losing streak, beating the New York Yankees 5-2 on Thursday night.

Jones’ third homer of the season was a two-run drive off Masahiro Tanaka in a five-run seventh inning. It came shortly after Aaron Judge had given New York a 1-0 lead in the sixth with his second home run of the year.

Giancarlo Stanton, making just his fourth big league start in left field, made a nice leaping attempt in front of the fence but wasn’t able to haul in Jones’ homer.
