Overview

• Charlie Morton outdueled former Braves teammate Spencer Strider in his Atlanta return, allowing two runs over 5 1/3 innings to secure the win and extend his streak to 5-0 in 10 outings since May 10.
• Jordan Westburg’s opposite-field home run in the third and Cedric Mullins’ two-run shot in the fifth provided all of Baltimore’s offense in the 3-2 victory.
• Tyler O’Neill marked his return from a left shoulder impingement with a single and a walk in his first action since mid-May.
• Reliever Félix Bautista pitched a perfect ninth inning for his 17th save in 18 chances, preserving the narrow lead.
• The win gives the Orioles a series advantage in Atlanta and sets up Dean Kremer to start the next game as Baltimore chases steadiness in the AL East.
