So Sad news: Grayson Rodriguez Ends Relationship with Baltimore orioles Star After finding out he was….Read More..

BALTIMORE (AP) — Alec Bohm hit a two-run double in the top of the 11th inning shortly after a 71-minute rain delay, and the Philadelphia Phillies outlasted the Baltimore Orioles 5-3 on Friday night.

With one out in the 11th and the automatic runner on second, the Orioles intentionally walked Bryce Harper. Bohm followed with a drive to left-center off Jacob Webb (1-4) that scored both runners.

Seranthony Dominguez worked the bottom of the inning for his first save of the season.

The opener of the three-game series between two of baseball’s top teams drew a sellout of 43,987 at Camden Yards, a crowd that included plenty of Phillies fans who apparently made the short trip from the Philadelphia area. It was an electric atmosphere from the start, when Kyle Schwarber led off the game with a home run, and the night only became wilder when each team scored a run in the 10th — with two replay reviews going Baltimore’s way on plays at the plate.

The sky opened and the tarp came out between the 10th and 11th. That cleared out a good number of the fans, although those that remained were spirited.

Rafael Marchán also homered for the Phillies, and Anthony Santander went deep for Baltimore. His drive to left in the eighth tied it at 2. The two-out home run came off Matt Strahm, who had gone 27 games without allowing an earned run.

The energy at the ballpark really reached another level when Craig Kimbrel came on for the Orioles to pitch the top of the ninth. His struggles in the NL Championship Series last year contributed to Philadelphia’s seven-game loss to Arizona, and the Phillies fans let him have it when he took the mound for his new team.
