Orioles Locked Into AL East Cellar After 6-1 Loss to Yankees

New York moved a half-game ahead of Toronto with the division to be settled Sunday.

Overview

  • Tomoyuki Sugano yielded three home runs in his final start, finishing his rookie season with an AL-high 33 allowed, including shots by Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton and Ryan McMahon.
  • Yankees rookie Cam Schlittler dominated with seven innings of two-hit, one-walk ball as Baltimore struck out 12 times and managed only three hits.
  • Coby Mayo accounted for the Orioles’ lone run with a solo homer in the eighth inning, his 11th of the season.
  • Pregame moves saw Baltimore option Cade Povich and place Dietrich Enns on the paternity list, recalling Grant Wolfram and Carson Ragsdale; Wolfram walked three in 0.2 innings and helped extend New York’s lead.
  • The defeat guaranteed Baltimore (75-86) a last-place AL East finish with one game remaining, while the Yankees hold a slim lead over the Blue Jays, who own the tiebreaker.
