The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Baltimore Orioles, 6-5, in 10 innings, further damaging Baltimore’s already slim playoff hopes with fewer than two weeks remaining in the regular season. Rece Hinds’ defensive mistakes contributed to Milwaukee’s scoring, including a misplayed line drive in the sun that became a triple and a ninth-inning error. Baltimore’s bullpen kept the team competitive after a short outing from Cade Povich, but the Orioles repeatedly failed to capitalize, striking out 13 times and leaving scoring opportunities unused. The Orioles rallied from a two-run deficit in the ninth inning with sacrifice flies from Samuel Basallo and Christian Encarnacion-Strand, but Sal Frelick’s extra-inning single gave Milwaukee the deciding run. The loss reflected broader concerns about Baltimore’s defense, inconsistent offense, baserunning and decision-making as the team fights to remain in the wild-card race.
