Holliday and Mateo homer as Orioles defeat White Sox 4-2 to clinch series win
Jackson Holliday hit his first career leadoff home run, Jorge Mateo slugged his first homer of the season and the Baltimore Orioles defeated the Chicago White Sox 4-2 on Saturday. Dean Kremer (5-5) allowed one run in six innings to win his second consecutive start for Baltimore, which has won five of seven for the first time this season. The Orioles clinched their third home series victory of the season and their first since taking two of three from the New York Yankees on April 28-30. Félix Bautista earned his 10th save in 11 tries with a scoreless ninth. The White Sox (18-40) fell to 6-25 on the road and are a season-high 22 games under .500. After yielding Holliday's home run in the first, Chicago starter Davis Martin (2-6) didn't allow a hit until Ryan O'Hearn's one-double in the fourth. O'Hearn came around two batters later on Coby Mayo's single. In the fifth, Mateo followed Dylan Carlson's one-out double by lofting a fly over the fence in center for his first homer since last June 21. Andrew Benintendi hit an RBI single in the fifth off Kremer and Mike Tauchman drove in the White Sox's other run with a single off Yennier Cano in the seventh. Kremer allowed six hits and struck out seven. He improved to 2-0 with a 1.02 ERA in three career starts against the White Sox. Martin gave up four runs in six innings. He struck out six. Bautista struck out Luis Robert Jr. and Austin Slater to escape a two-on, one-out jam in the ninth. Bautista earned saves on consecutive days for the first time since July 22-23, 2023. The right-hander missed all of last season after undergoing Tommy John surgery in October 2023. Chicago RHP Adrian Houser (1-0, 0.00 ERA), who has thrown 12 scoreless innings since signing with the White Sox on May 20, starts the series finale against Baltimore RHP Charlie Morton (1-7, 7.09).

Orioles snap 8-game skid as Rutschman homers in 11th inning of 8-4 victory over Brewers
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Adley Rutschman hit a three-run homer to highlight Baltimore's four-run outburst in the 11th inning as the Orioles snapped an eight-game skid by beating the Milwaukee Brewers 8-4 on Wednesday. Baltimore ended its longest losing streak since August 2021, when it dropped 19 straight games. Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino earned his first win in his fifth game since taking over for Brandon Hyde, who was fired Saturday. Milwaukee had tied the game on Caleb Durbin's two-out RBI single in the ninth against Félix Bautista, who was pitching on back-to-back days for the first time this year after missing the 2024 season due to Tommy John surgery. After Baltimore's Ryan O'Hearn and Milwaukee's Jackson Chourio hit RBI singles in the 10th, the Orioles broke through against Tyler Alexander (2-4) in the 11th. Automatic runner Heston Kjerstad advanced to third on Ramón Urías' infield single and scored on Jackson Holliday's single to center. Rutschman followed with a drive over the left-field wall. Seranthony Domínguez retired the side in order in the bottom of the 11th for his first save. Bryan Baker (3-0) allowed one run in the 10th and picked up the win. O'Hearn went 4 for 6 and drove in two runs. Baltimore's Gunnar Henderson scored three runs. Rhys Hoskins homered for Milwaukee. Key moment Although the Brewers eventually lost, they produced one of the more exciting plays of the season with some daring baserunning in the fifth inning. Durbin led off with a double After Joey Ortiz popped out on a bunt, Durbin took off for third in a stolen base attempt just as Brice Turang hit a dribbler about halfway up the first-base line. As the Orioles threw out Turang at first, Durbin kept on running and slid home safely. Key stat Rutschman's homer made him 4 for 8 against Alexander in his career. Up next The Orioles start a four-game series at Boston. Thursday's scheduled pitchers are Cade Povich (1-3, 5.23 ERA) for Baltimore and Lucas Giolito (1-1, 7.08) for Boston. The Brewers open a four-game series at Pittsburgh. Mike Burrows (0-0, 0.00) pitches for the Pirates on Thursday. The Brewers haven't announced a starter. ___ AP MLB:
