BOSTON — The Orioles’ outfield blunders at Fenway Park at last caught up to them in Saturday’s ninth inning.
With two outs, nobody on base and the Orioles leading the Boston Red Sox by one, closer Félix Bautista induced a soft fly ball to left, but Ryan McKenna dropped it. A batter later, Adam Duvall hit his second home run of the game, giving Boston a walk-off 9-8 victory.
The Orioles’ outfield defense has been suspect throughout the team’s first two games, with McKenna’s drop joining poor routes and misreads.
