Crew-Chief Review Awards Basallo Walk-Off as Orioles Edge Pirates in 11

The rookie catcher logged his second game-winner in four days, punctuating Baltimore's six-of-seven surge behind Kyle Bradish's sharp return.

Overview

  • Samuel Basallo’s opposite-field popup was initially ruled foul before crew chief Manny Gonzalez overturned it on review, sealing a 3-2 win over the Pirates.
  • Video showed the ball grazing Tommy Pham’s glove in fair territory and landing on the chalk, converting the 11th-inning play into a game-ending RBI single.
  • It marked Baltimore’s third walk-off in four games and Basallo’s second in that span after his ninth-inning homer beat the Dodgers on Friday.
  • Kyle Bradish delivered seven innings of one-run ball with six strikeouts in his third start since elbow/Tommy John surgery, lowering his ERA to 2.65 in that stretch.
  • Dietrich Enns tossed two scoreless extra frames for the win, Jeremiah Jackson homered before exiting after a hit-by-pitch, and Dauri Moreta took the loss for Pittsburgh.
