Jones carries Orioles to 3-2 win over Rockies in 10 innings

Baltimore’s bullpen held the Rockies down for the next three innings, allowing just a two-out single to Daniel Descalso in the top of the tenth, sending the game to the bottom of the 10th still tied at two.

On Sunday, it was outfielder Nolan Reimold whose pinch-hit, walk-off home run gave them a 5-3 win over the Cleveland Indians.

It was the second consecutive walk-off win for the Orioles and the fifth in this 2016 season, the first being on opening day.

Colorado has won five of its past six games and rebounded from a disappointing series opener when they lost in the 10th inning on a throwing error by right-hander Jordan Lyles.

Dahl, the 10th overall pick in the 2012 draft, traveled across the country before arriving at Camden Yards around 5 p.m.

Colorado selected Dahl’s contract from Triple-A Albuquerque earlier Monday.

The under is 7-2 in Colorado’s last 9 road games and the over is 9-3-1 in their last 13 interleague games while the under is 6-2-1 in their last 9 on grass. I was chasing the high pitches a little bit tonight, but then I settled down. I think I was able to get ground balls whenever I needed to and get out of trouble. “It’s always a friendly competition, and that’s going to help and benefit in the long run as a team”.

“I was very anxious and very excited”, said Dahl, who finished the night 1-for-4.

On Tuesday night, the Rockies emphatically spoiled Tillman’s bid to become the first 15-game victor in the majors. “He’s earned it. He deserves it. And he’s here because we feel like he can help us win games”.

The Rockies made three errors, which resulted in two unearned runs by the AL East-leading Orioles. And eventually the Orioles eeked out a final run for the win, being set up with hits by Adam Jones and Jonathan Schoop.

Third baseman Manny Machado hit the ball softly back to Lyles on the mound, who dropped the ball.

PHILLIES 4, MARLINS 0: Jeremy Hellickson dominated Miami for a second straight start, throwing six innings of one-hit ball at Miami. “And now even when I do fall behind, it’s just one of those things where it allows me to make a pretty good pitch for that exact reason”.

As much as people love cliches about “wanting it more” and “refusing to lose”, there’s no secret formula to being good in close games; it takes a combination of skill and luck.

After Colorado loaded the bases with one out in the third, Tillman retired Nolan Arenado on a foul popup and was within a strike of getting out of the jam when Gonzalez lined a double into the left-field corner.

Adam Jones and the Baltimore Orioles found yet another way to win, this time in extra innings on a grounder to the pitcher.

Arenado had made one error in 836.1 innings this season coming into Monday’s game.

But Gallardo then issued a two-out walk to rookie David Dahl, who was making his major league debut, and Dahl moved to second and into scoring position on a wild pitch. He struggled early and often, allowing a season-tying high six runs on nine hits with four strikeouts over five innings.

He entered the seventh with a 2-1 lead but was lifted after hitting a batter and giving up a double.

Gallardo gave up two runs and five hits in 6 2/3 innings. In the seventh, with the game tied 1-1, he scorched a two-out single on a 3-2 pitch up the middle off Baltimore starter Yovani Gallardo for his first major-league hit.

Dickerson’s drive extended San Diego’s team-record streak of games with at least one home run to 23.

At the same time, the defense is typically strong, with the lack of such on display by the Rockies last night, in many ways costing them the game. Tillman has registered seven-plus innings while allowing just a single earned run in four straight starts.
