Orioles Trip Diamondbacks, 3-0
The Baltimore Orioles downed the Arizona Diamondbacks, 3-0, at Chase Field. Stellar pitching by Sonny Gray had a lot to do with it. The right-hander, who is tied for 10th in the AL with a 1.23 WHIP, handcuffed his opponent all game. Jonny Venters was called on to finish, recording his 18th save. The 4th-place Diamondbacks have dropped 4 straight games.

Baltimore used the hitting of Johnny Grubb to pick up the win. The left fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Orioles on top, 3-0. For the game, Grubb had 1 home run and 2 singles in 4 at-bats.

Gray called the win "a lesson in teamwork."
