Although the record isn’t where we want it to be — it’s not the goal, by any means — I think the improvements that we’ve seen from years past, especially last year into this year, has been really, really great, and it’s something that I wanted to see this year, some tangible improvements. It’s way more fun. It’s been great seeing a lot of these guys grow and come into their own, and it’s been really cool to be a part of.
Ryan Mountcastle homered and doubled and Tyler Wells won his fifth consecutive start as the Baltimore Orioles snapped a four-game losing streak with a 3-1 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Sunday afternoon in Minneapolis. Trey Mancini and Rougned Odor also homered for the Orioles, who also ended a 12-game losing streak at Target Field dating back to July 9, 2017.
The first 4 innings of this game went by without a run on the board, and early on, Tyler Wells and Devin Smeltzer were matching each other with strong starts. Smeltzer was aided by some tremendous outfield defense, with Gilberto Celestino launching a dart from center field to nab Anthony Santander at the plate and end the 4th inning. The scoreless tie was broken in the 5th.
