Orioles Break Streak, Surge Toward Wild Card | Baltimore Orioles News

The Orioles finally snapped their losing streak with a four-game win streak, sweeping the Royals and ending on an eight-to-two demolition. After years of falling short on their fourth win in a row, they’re now the second-to-last team to pull it off — and it couldn’t come at a better time. Sitting at a season-low nine games under .500, they’ve surged to 46-51 with wins over the Cubs and Royals, keeping alive their Wild Card hopes. Leody Taveras was the spark, launching his longest homer ever (448 feet) and driving in the go-ahead run, igniting a five-run rally that included RBI singles from Henderson and Alonso, a pinch-hit double from Jackson, and a solo shot from rookie Basallo. With momentum and confidence, they head into the All-Star break on a high note — and it’s a sign they’re ready to fight for the postseason.
