Infuriating night in Boston. The Baltimore Orioles’ 7-game win streak is snapped in a 6-5 loss to the Red Sox, who extend their own streak to 14 straight. Luke Slabaugh breaks down a sloppy, frustrating game defined by FOUR defensive errors, 15 strikeouts, and three blown leads.
Gunnar Henderson, Jeremiah Jackson, Shane Baz, and Taylor Ward all contribute to costly mistakes that lead to unearned runs and lost momentum. Baz was efficient but burned by defense behind him. Offensively, the Orioles had chances — including a Christian Encarnacion-Strand homer and multiple clutch hits — but couldn’t land the knockout blow.
