Young contributed a big hit, a grand slam home run, for Baltimore in the bottom of the fifth. With his team trailing 2-1, Young took a fastball from Tim Bruce and stroked the home run to right-center. His 10th home run of the season allowed the Orioles to leap in front, 5-2.

"I was able to barrel up some pitches," said Young.
