Orioles Blow Late Inning Lead for 5th Loss in a Row

Everything was looking good for the Baltimore Orioles going into the bottom of the 8th with a 2 to 0 lead against the Mariners. It looked as though Jeremy Guthrie might get his first complete game shutout tonight but things changed fast. Luke Scott fielded a grounder to first base and made a wild throw to Guthrie on what should have been a routine third out to end the inning. Guthrie then gave up a single and then a 3 run homer to give the Mariners a 3 to 2 lead going into the 9th inning. Luke Scott played horribly by the way. Poor Guthrie, I really felt sorry for him after pitching so well.

Final Score: Orioles 2 Mariners 3
