Royals Lose to Orioles in Walk Off
The Baltimore Orioles did just enough to sneak past the Kansas City Royals, 4-3, at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Baltimore right fielder Alfredo Morales, in particular, had a standout performance. Baltimore reliever Javier Mejía got the win, raising his record to 1-0. Joe Kelly was tagged with the loss. Kansas City falls to 2-2.

The Orioles procured the win, in large part because of second baseman Luis Arraez. In the bottom of the 12th, he produced the game-winning run-scoring double.

"Tough ballgame, tough loss," said Kansas City manager David Eckstein.
