Vazquez scored on Ramon Laureano's third double of the game. Henderson then hit a two-run double off the right-field wall. It was the fourth consecutive extra-inning game for the Rangers, tying a team record set in 2002. The Orioles are 20–10 against the Rangers since 2021. Keegan Akin (3–0) blew another save before picking up the win. Baltimore starter Trevor Rogers led off the top of the fourth because of an injury to catcher Chadwick Tromp. The Orioles had to move designated hitter Gary Sanchez to catcher, and Rogers took Tromp's spot in the order. Key moment: The Rangers used a crazy play in the seventh to tie it at 3–3 when rookie Michael Helman scored from first. He was hit in the helmet sliding into second, and the ball went into center field. Helman came home to score when Sanchez couldn't secure the ball. Key stat: Laureano, who went 4 for 6 with three runs scored, extended his streak to six straight games with at least one hit and one run scored.

O's erase six-run deficit and obliterate Rays, 22-8
June 28 - Gary Sanchez hit a go-ahead home run and Colton Cowser doubled three times as the Baltimore Orioles wiped out a six-run deficit to beat the visiting Tampa Bay Rays 22-8 in Friday night's series opener. Gunnar Henderson's four hits included a home run and a triple while Sanchez had four hits and drove in four runs as the Orioles snapped Tampa Bay's three-game winning streak. Coby Mayo homered and knocked in four runs and Jackson Holliday homered for his only hit in seven at-bats. Ramon Laureano and Cowser each scored four times as Tampa Bay tied its franchise record for most runs allowed in a game. Brandon Lowe's three-run homer was the third long ball of Tampa Bay's second inning, but his four runs batted in and three hits weren't nearly enough as the Rays lost for the second time in their last seven games. Jonathan Aranda and Josh Lowe also homered for Tampa Bay while Yanny Diaz and Danny Jansen added two hits apiece. Baltimore starting pitcher Tomoyuki Sugano (6-4) was the winner despite giving up seven runs on nine hits in five innings. Tampa Bay starter Ryan Pepiot recorded five outs before his outing was done, allowing four runs on five hits with two walks and one strikeout. Eric Orze (1-1), the Rays' third of six relievers, gave up the lead in the Orioles' three-run fifth. By that point, Tampa Bay's 6-0 lead was largely an afterthought. Aranda led off the second inning with his ninth home run of the season and, two batters later, Lowe smashed his fifth. The Rays weren't done as Chandler Simpson walked with two outs, stole second and scored on Jansen's single. Brandon Lowe put the finishing touch on the early outburst with his 17th homer of the season. The Orioles struck back in the bottom of the second on Mayo's two-run double. Then Urias, pinch hitting for injured Jordan Westburg, posted a two-out, two-run single. Baltimore closed the gap to 6-5 in the third with an unearned run. Brandon Lowe's two-out single gave the Rays a 7-5 edge in the fourth. The Orioles got back-to-back doubles from Laureano and Cowser to begin the bottom of the fifth before Sanchez's go-ahead homer off Orze. --Field Level Media

Jacob deGrom Flirts With a Perfect Game, Then a No-Hitter With the Rangers
When Jacob deGrom is at his best, the Texas Rangers believe he's the best pitcher on the planet. The two-time Cy Young Award winner certainly is looking like his old self. DeGrom flirted with a perfect game through six innings and a no-hitter through seven Wednesday night in another dominating performance in his return from Tommy John surgery in June 2023. He threw 89 pitches, getting pulled after giving up his only hit to Colton Cowser leading off the eighth. The Rangers finished off a 7–0 win over the Baltimore Orioles as deGrom tied his career-best streak of 13 straight starts giving up two or fewer earned runs. 'When you miss that much time, you miss this a lot,' deGrom said. 'You've got time to really think about what you've done in your career. The goal is to try to come back and be as good as I was before the surgery, so constantly trying to work on that and still working on things in between.' He walked Jackson Holliday starting the seventh. Then he struck out Jordan Westburg and got Gunnar Henderson to fly out. DeGrom walked Ryan O'Hearn, putting two on and causing a mound visit, then got Gary Sánchez to ground into an inning-ending forceout. Texas removed deGrom after he faced 24 batters. He had thrown 59 of 89 pitches for strikes. Manager Bruce Bochy said deGrom was throwing well and he planned to give him a chance to finish a no-hit bid. The Rangers have been limiting deGrom to around 80 pitches per game. 'First guy that got a hit, that was far enough,' Bochy said. 'We had a nice lead and he's so fun to watch. He really is. I've said this. I'm a fan when he's pitching.' Rangers catcher Jonah Heim said deGrom was throwing all four pitches for strikes and all he had to do was call the pitches. 'That's the best I've ever seen him since he came over here,' Heim said. 'So really encouraging to see, really proud of him for all the work he's put in to get here.' The Rangers certainly are getting the best of deGrom in his third season in Texas since signing a $185 million, five-year deal. He's off to an 8–2 start and has started 16 games after being limited to three in 2024 and six in 2023. Yes, deGrom wanted to finish off a no-hitter until a fastball wound up in the wrong spot for the only hit he allowed. 'It was just fun to be out there,' deGrom said.
