Orioles Lose Mateo and Suárez to Injuries in Costly Loss to Marlins
Baltimore's second baseman and starting pitcher exited the game on consecutive plays, complicating their lineup and rotation.
- Jorge Mateo suffered a left arm injury in a collision with teammate Gunnar Henderson while fielding a ground ball.
- Albert Suárez was struck by a line drive on the next play, forcing him to leave the game with a foot injury.
- Mateo has been a key player for the Orioles, contributing strong defense and 13 stolen bases this season.
- Suárez, who had a 2.82 ERA before the game, has been vital to an injury-hit Orioles rotation.
- The Orioles fell to the Marlins 6-3, with their bullpen holding the Marlins scoreless after the third inning.
