Orioles Use Late Rally to Win
Baltimore and New York duked it out and the Orioles came out victorious.

Antonio Velez, who is tied for 3rd in the AL in wins with 12, had a strong outing for the Baltimore Orioles against the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium. The left-hander was a big part of his team's 5-3 win. Baltimore pitcher Graham Firoved earned the win, hiking his record to 7-1. Miguel Pozo suffered the loss. Felix Bautista closed the game out for Baltimore, earning his 25th save.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Matthew Etzel? The 25-year old left fielder Etzel stroked a 2-run double in the top of the ninth inning to put Baltimore up, 5-3. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

Baltimore manager Ron Chiu was pleased with the team's effort. "It was just a good, gutsy performance by everybody," he said.

The Orioles improved their record to 68-41 with the win over New York.
