The Orioles had this game. And then… the 6th inning happened.
Shane Baz was DEALING through five — efficient, dominant, completely in control of a 4-0 lead. But everything unraveled in a nightmare bottom of the sixth as defensive mistakes, missed calls, and momentum swings handed the Blue Jays a 6-4 comeback win and the series.
A Gunnar Henderson error cracked the door open. A controversial missed base path call could’ve ended the inning. Instead, it spiraled — and you could feel Baz (and the Orioles) lose their edge in real time.
Colton Cowser and Taylor Ward gave Baltimore early life with big swings, and the offense did just enough… but this one slips away in a way that’s going to stick.
