Rojas Leads Orioles to Win
The performance of Edwin Rojas proved critical in helping Baltimore beat Toronto, 6-4. The Orioles right fielder went 2 for 3 with 2 home runs and 2 walks. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Tony Ibarra, 4-3, earned the win in relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. The Orioles improved their record to 53-49 by beating Toronto.

The game was at a stalemate until first baseman Aaron Smith came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Toronto pitcher Ken Amezquita, he hit a first pitch changeup for a 2-run single. It was a game-changer, putting Baltimore on top, 6-4.

"Winning is always a team effort," Smith said after the game.
