Rookie Gunnar Henderson extended his torrid-hitting spree with his first career grand slam, one of four home runs launched by the Baltimore Orioles in an 11-6 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday night.
It was the fifth straight win for the surprising Orioles, who climbed 18 games over .500 for the first time since 2016, when they last reached the playoffs. Tampa Bay, which leads second-place Baltimore in the AL East, is the only team in the majors with a better record.
Henderson has homered in three straight games, has 11 hits in his last four starts and is batting .246 after entering June at .201. Frazier's second-inning home run put Baltimore up 2-1. O'Hearn connected in the third before Henderson drove a 1-0 pitch over the centre-field wall and into the Baltimore bullpen. The shot travelled an estimated 387 feet, impressive except when compared to the 462-foot blast he launched against Kansas City on Sunday.Cavan Biggio homered for the Blue Jays, who fell to 0-4 against Baltimore this season.
