Those two blasts were Mayo's first of the season at Kaufman Stadium, both sailing deep into left field with the last one clocking 400. 52 feet, he more than doubled his RBI count to 10, while Peter Lanzo added his third homer of the year for Baltimore. On the mound, Chris Bassett picked up his first win as an Oriole, giving up five runs over five in a third innings. Kansas City's Michael Watcha, who came in with a sharp 1.00 ERA, struggled, allowing six runs in five in a third. The royals fought back early with homers from Carter Jensen, Vinnie Pasquantino, and Kyle Isbell, grabbing a brief 3-2 lead. But Baltimore's sixth inning explosion, featuring six straight batters on base, sealed it at 8-3.
Orioles head home to face Boston on Friday, while Kansas City hosts the Angels with Noah Cameron on the hill. Momentum's building in Baltimore as they keep rolling strong. That's the story for today, MLB News. Today, driven by AI.
