The game belonged to the ninth inning. Colton Cowser launched a three-run homer to center field, erasing a two-run deficit and lifting Baltimore to a 5-3 victory over Detroit at Camden Yards.
Cowser went 1-for-2 with 3 RBI, delivering the decisive blow after the Orioles had trailed 3-1 entering the final frame. The outfielder now has 2 home runs and 12 RBI this season while carrying a .200 average.
The rally began quietly in the eighth when Taylor Ward singled to center, bringing Jackson home to cut the deficit to 3-2. But the real drama waited for the ninth. Cowser's 440-foot blast to center scored Holliday and Taveras ahead of him, completing the comeback in stunning fashion.
Kenley Jansen absorbed the loss for Detroit, allowing 3 runs on 1 hit and 2 walks in his lone inning of work. The veteran closer now stands 1-3 with a 5.02 ERA. Framber Valdez had given the Tigers a strong start, allowing just 1 run on 2 hits over 6 innings with 5 strikeouts.
Baltimore snapped a losing streak and improved to 22-29. Detroit's struggles continued, extending their losing streak to seven games as they fell to 20-32. Henderson sits 3 home runs away from 100 career homers.
