Baltimore got out to an early 9-0 lead, powered by a three-run homer from Colton Cowser, and held on for a 9-5 win over Toronto in the conclusion to a four-game weekend series at Camden Yards on Sunday.
Cowser has been on a tear over the past week, with two walkoff homers in wins over Detroit and Tampa Bay, and then today’s three-run blast, which capped a five-run third and put the Orioles (28-32, 10 GB, AL East) up 6-0.
Kyle Bradish (3-6, 3.44 ERA) got the win for the O’s, going seven innings, giving up an unearned run on four hits, striking out four and walking three.
UVA Baseball alum Ernie Clement was 2-for-4 with an RBI double and two runs scored for Toronto.
Monday is an off-day for Baltimore, ahead of a road trip that starts on Tuesday at Boston.
