Baltimore Orioles Finally Break Losing Streak Behind Adley Rutschman's 11th-Inning Homer

All that, though, can be put in the rear-view mirror at least for one game. Baltimore took a 4-3 lead into the bottom of the ninth inning and hoped Félix Bautista could close it out. But Milwaukee's Caleb Durbin scorched a two-out single to tie things up at 4-4. Bautista was pitching on back-to-back days for the first time this year after missing the 2024 season with Tommy John surgery, The Associated Press reported.

Both teams traded runs in the 10th inning behind RBI singles from the Orioles' Ryan O'Hearn and the Brewers' Jackson Chourio.

Baltimore, though, rocked Brewers reliever Tyler Alexander (2-4) for their four-run outburst. Jackson Holliday's single scored automatic runner Heston Kjerstad from third base. He reached third on teammate Ramón Urías’ infield single. Rutschman then delivered the big blow for the Orioles, slamming a three-run shot that just made it over the left-field wall.

Orioles reliever Seranthony Domínguez worked a solid 11th inning, getting the Brewers out in order for his first save this season. Relief pitcher Bryan Baker (3-0) gave up that 10th-inning run to Milwaukee but earned the victory.

O’Hearn had a stellar day at the plate, going 4-for-6 with two RBIs. Orioles teammate Gunnar Henderson also scored three runs in the win. 

The victory can start as a pick-me-up for a Baltimore team in desperate need of finding a winning path. After Wednesday's game, the Orioles traveled to Boston where they'll open a four-game series against the Red Sox at Fenway Park on Thursday. Cade Povich (1-3, 5.23 ERA) is scheduled to start for the Orioles against Boston's Lucas Giolito (1-1, 7.08 ERA).
