Overview

• Baltimore scored four runs in the 11th inning, highlighted by a pinch-hit RBI single from Luis Vázquez, Ramón Laureano’s third double of the game, and a two-run double by Gunnar Henderson.
• Interim manager Tony Mansolino shifted DH Gary Sánchez behind the plate after Chadwick Tromp’s injury, forcing Trevor Rogers to bat twice—the first starter to do so since MLB’s universal DH era began.
• Trevor Rogers delivered a quality start with 5⅓ innings, two runs allowed and five strikeouts to set the tone against Patrick Corbin’s six-inning, three-run outing.
• The Texas bullpen was tested for the fourth straight extra-inning game, tying a franchise record and leaving the Rangers to turn to ace Jacob deGrom in Game 2.
• Under Tony Mansolino, who has guided the Orioles to a 21-19 mark since May 17, Baltimore demonstrated renewed urgency even as the team stays below .500.
