The Baltimore (GCL) Orioles and Minnesota (GCL) Twins provided some drama for the home crowd.

The losing pitcher was Jeff Fitzpatrick. Thad Philbrick sewed up the save, his 4th.

Brad Bowers drove in one run for Minnesota (GCL). With one out and the game tied in the top of the eighth inning, Bowers had a clutch at-bat. Facing Baltimore (GCL) hurler Jeff Fitzpatrick, he hit a sacrifice fly to give the Twins a 4-3 lead.

"We'll build on this win," said Bowers.

The last-place Orioles have dropped 5 straight games.
