Orioles Secure Split with Strong 4-2 Win Over Red Sox

— The Baltimore Orioles secured a 4-2 victory over the Boston Red Sox on Sunday, thanks to another impressive scoreless start from pitcher Albert Suárez and home runs from Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson. This win allowed the Orioles to split their four-game series with the Red Sox. Suárez, who has stepped back into the rotation due to an injury to Grayson Rodriguez, has now gone three consecutive starts without allowing a run, totaling 17 2/3 innings. In the game, Suárez (6-4) showcased his skills by striking out key batters, including Tyler O’Neill, and managing to escape a jam in the sixth inning despite two runners reaching base. The Orioles' offense was sparked by Rutschman’s solo homer, and a crucial error by Red Sox shortstop Ceddanne Rafaela allowed another run to score, extending Baltimore's lead. On the mound for Boston, Kutter Crawford (8-10) showed improvement, allowing three runs and two hits over 5 1/3 innings after a rough stretch in his previous outings. The Red Sox struggled to capitalize on opportunities, ultimately falling short in the contest. Looking ahead, the Orioles will face the New York Mets in a three-game series starting Monday, with Trevor Rogers (0-2) set to pitch. Meanwhile, the Red Sox will begin a three-game series against the Houston Astros, with Tanner Houck (8-8) taking the mound for Boston.
