The Baltimore Orioles are seeking another upset in Game 2 of the three-game set against the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday. Baltimore shocked fans at T-Mobile Park after pulling a 5-1 win on the road. What was supposed to be a comfortable win for the playoff-contending Mariners was anything but, as a rare consistent game from the O's materialized in Seattle.
Rowdy Tellez's solo shot in the second inning was all the offense that the hosts could muster as the O's drew contributions across the board. Ryan O'Hearn, Colton Cowser, Heston Kjerstad and Jackson Holliday each produced runs to supplement Tomoyuki Sugano's decent outing on the mound. The two-time Eiji Sawamura awardee gave up just one run on five base hits in seven innings.
