BALTIMORE (AP) — Ryan Weathers carried a no-hitter into the seventh inning before giving up a single, and Coby Mayo smashed a three-run homer off reliever Brent Headrick to lead the Baltimore Orioles to a 3-2 win over the New York Yankees on Monday night.
Weathers’ no-hit bid ended when Adley Rutschman opened the seventh with a grounder up the middle. After Tyler O’Neill drew a one-out walk, Yankees manager Aaron Boone brought in Headrick (3-1). Mayo, who entered the game with a .158 batting average, drove Headrick’s third pitch over the left-field wall. Weathers struck out nine, walked three, and threw 101 pitches. Dietrich Enns (1-0) got the win in relief of starter Brandon Young, and rookie Anthony Nunez recorded three outs for his second save.
In the ninth, Ryan McMahon hit a deep fly ball that O’Neill caught against the right-field wall for the second out. Paul Goldschmidt then singled, but pinch-runner José Caballero was thrown out attempting to steal second. Caballero, who did not start due to a finger injury, was initially called safe, but a replay review overturned the call to end the game.
Ben Rice hit a two-run homer in the third inning for the Yankees, who have lost four straight games. New York had swept Baltimore in a four-game series at Yankee Stadium earlier this month, outscoring the Orioles 39-10.
On Tuesday night, Will Warren (4-1, 3.46 ERA) will start for New York. Baltimore hopes to start left-hander Trevor Rogers (2-3, 4.75), who has been on the 15-day injured list with an illness since April 26.
