The Baltimore Orioles staged a dramatic comeback to defeat the Detroit Tigers 10-9 in 12 innings, overcoming a seven-run deficit. Colton Cowser’s tiebreaking single in the 12th inning sealed the victory, spoiling what could have been Tarik Skubal’s final game with the Tigers before the trade deadline. Skubal, who received several standing ovations, had pitched a shutout into the seventh inning. However, the Orioles rallied, scoring five runs in the seventh and two in the eighth to tie the game. Despite Spencer Torkelson’s two-run homer for Detroit in the 11th, Baltimore prevailed with Cowser’s decisive hit. The game highlighted the Orioles’ resilience and the Tigers’ bullpen struggles.
