The American League East-leading Blue Jays came to Baltimore as baseball’s hottest team. The Orioles, by starting the four-game series with two imposing victories, extinguished that stretch with a pair of offensive outputs that showed what a mostly healthy lineup can do — even if it’s too late to change the front office’s plans.

The Baltimore Orioles tied an obscure record on Tuesday in a blowout 16-4 victory against the Toronto Blue Jays (box score), the first game of a doubleheader. Indeed, the O's became just the fourth team since 1901 to notch five sacrifice flies in a single contest.

The Dominican pitcher will bolster the Canadian organization's bullpen with the goal of remaining the best team in the AL.
