Tampa Bay Rays vs Baltimore Orioles Box Score on Jul 28, 2022

Jordan Lyles pitched into the sixth inning, Trey Mancini hit an inside-the-park home run and the host Baltimore Orioles beat the Tampa Bay Rays 3-0 on Thursday afternoon.

Mancini, a subject of trade talks, made what could be his last at-bat for the Orioles at Camden Yards a memorable one.

With one out, one on and the Orioles holding a 1-0 lead in the eighth, Mancini sent a high fly ball to right field. Tampa Bay's Josh Lowe couldn't find it in the sun and the ball deflected off him and into the right-field corner. Austin Hays scored from second and Mancini raced all the way around, beating the relay throw home for his first career inside-the-park homer.

Between innings, Mancini, the designated hitter and longtime member of the Orioles, received a curtain call. The Orioles embark Friday on a six-game road trip that will extend beyond the trade deadline.

Lyles (7-8), allowed three hits and pitched around control problems as he struck out four and walked four. Felix Bautista pitched 1 1/3 innings for his third save as Orioles pitchers combined on a four-hitter.

Ryan Yarbrough (0-6) went toe-to-toe with Lyles, allowing a run on four hits over six innings. He struck out eight batters without a walk.

Luke Raley's two-out single put runners on first and third against Lyles in the first inning, but Lowe swung and missed on a 3-2 fastball.

Baltimore scored in the third inning. With one out, Hays was hit by a pitch. With two outs, he stole second and scored on a double to right by Anthony Santander.

The Rays mounted a two-out threat against Lyles in the sixth when Lowe lined a single to left and Roman Quinn walked. Cionel Perez replaced Lyles and struck out pinch hitter Randy Arozarena.

The Rays challenged in the top of the eighth when Raley was hit by a pitch with one out and Lowe drew a walk from Bryan Baker. After a groundout advanced both runners, Orioles manager Brandon Hyde called on Bautista, who struck out Arozarena on three pitches.
