The Baltimore Orioles looked prepared to cruise to an easy victory on Thursday afternoon against the Miami Marlins. Instead, they were forced to play extra innings, despite entering the bottom of the eighth up by five runs.
The Marlins trimmed Baltimore's lead to 6–3 entering the ninth inning when Craig Kimbrel took the mound. In 2/3 innings, Kimbrel allowed three runs (one earned) on two hits and two walks. Yennier Cano replaced Kimbrel to finish off the ninth inning.
