A Nail-Biting Finish! 
What a game, fellow Orioles fans! Our boys managed to squeeze out a thrilling 4-3 victory over the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park that kept us on the edge of our seats until the very end. 
️Early Innings Drama
The game started with some solid pitching and defense from both sides, keeping the score at 0-0 through two innings. Gunnar Henderson provided some early spark with a single in the 1st inning, but it wasn't until the 3rd that the Red Sox got their first run due to a disengagement violation. Yes, you read that right!
The Orioles' Comeback! 
In the 5th inning, our Orioles bats finally came alive. Jackson Holliday doubled to set up the inning, and Ryan Mountcastle drove him home with a single to left, tying the score at 1. Then, Colton Cowser smashed a double to center, bringing Luis Vázquez home for the lead. A wild pitch during Coby Mayo's at-bat allowed Mountcastle to score another, extending our lead to 3-1. The energy was electrifying! 
️Pitching Holds Strong!
Our bullpen did an outstanding job of keeping the Red Sox at bay. Special shoutout to Keegan Akin and Garcia for dominating performances in the 6th and 8th innings, ensuring our lead remained intact despite a shaky 9th inning where Nathaniel Lowe hit a two-run homer to tie the game at 3-3. But fear not! The Orioles spirit never wavers.
Extra-Inning Glory! 
It all came down to the 11th inning. With Jeremiah Jackson strategically placed on third base after a smart play, Sam Basallo stepped up and grounded out to catcher, bringing Jackson home with what would become the winning run! The Orioles took the lead 4-3, and the pressure was on for our bullpen.Sealing the Win!
Martin took the mound in the bottom of the 11th and shut down the Red Sox's hopes of a comeback. Roman Anthony and Alex Bregman both failed to deliver against our cool-headed pitching. The final out brought a collective sigh of relief and celebration for Orioles fans everywhere.
What a ride, Orioles! Keep that momentum going! Orioles baseball is life!
