In their most recent game against the Mariners, the Orioles demonstrated strong offensive capabilities with a .333 batting average, securing a 6-3 victory. This win was backed by an impressive display of power hitting, as evidenced by their slugging percentage of .556 and two home runs during the game. Their ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities was clear, with four hits resulting in runs batted in (RBI) out of thirteen chances with runners in scoring position (RISP).


However, it wasn't just the offense that shone; Baltimore's defense also held strong. The team committed no errors and showcased efficient fielding throughout the game. The bullpen played a crucial role as well, maintaining a solid performance despite allowing two earned runs over three innings pitched.
