Tough play, he throws it on the other side of the plate, and their guy did a nice job getting off base.” “We wanted to try to get the run at home, especially any sort of chopper like that, you're going to react that way.

“No chance of a double play, I don't think,” Tigers manager A.J. Torkelson's throw on Frazier's grounder was to the wrong side of home, but it might not have gotten Mountcastle anyway. Mountcastle hit a one-out single off Jason Foley (0-1), then went to third on a single by Anthony Santander. With the Tigers down to their last strike in the ninth, Javier Báez hit a tying single off Orioles closer Félix Bautista (2-1), snapping a 34-inning scoreless streak by Baltimore pitchers. “I don’t think they want to race me right now,” Mountcastle joked after the game. Mountcastle beat the throw home from first baseman Spencer Torkelson in a impressive show of speed - the type of dash normally reserved for teammates Cedric Mullins (nine steals this season) and Jorge Mateo (eight). The 6-foot-4, 220-pound Mountcastle represented the winning run with one out, and he got a good jump when Frazier hit a soft grounder to the right side. Ryan Mountcastle hustled home from third in the bottom of the ninth inning, scoring on Adam Frazier's grounder to give the Orioles their fourth straight victory, 2-1 over the Detroit Tigers on Friday night. BALTIMORE - The Baltimore Orioles showed off more of their speed on the bases - this time from an unlikely source.
