The Orioles head out of town for a difficult seven-game road trip to New York and Boston with another series win. In seven series, they've won six and split one for a 14-6 overall record.
The Orioles' 5-4 win against the Tampa Bay Rays in 11 innings April 26 came the strange way. The Rays scored a run in the top of the 11th off right-hander Alec Asher, who hit two batters in the inning, and the Orioles won it with two runs in the bottom of the inning.
Right fielder Seth Smith's bases-loaded walk off right-hander Danny Farquhar was the game-winner.
"It's really just like every other club I've been on that's won a decent amount of games," Smith said. "You do everything timely and you pitch good enough and you hit good enough. If one's not doing well, the other picks it up and vice-versa. There's no secret to winning these games. You've got to pitch well, you've got to hit well and you've got to put it together over nine innings."
