Fans who gathered at Camden Yards saw a good contest between the Baltimore Orioles and Colorado Rockies.

Gary Gaetti did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Colorado Rockies from losing, 5-3, to the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. Gaetti was 4-4 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs. The Orioles now have a record of 55-55.

The game was at a stalemate until right fielder Glenn Davis came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Colorado pitcher Glendon Rusch, he hit a 1-2 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Baltimore on top, 4-3.

"We take it day by day here," said Davis, "and today was a good one for us."
