Orioles vs Rockies: Henderson’s Heroics Propel Baltimore to Comeback Win

The Baltimore Orioles will host the Colorado Rockies in an exciting MLB showdown at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The Orioles, leading the American League East and boasting an impressive 80-48 record, will look to extend their winning streak to four games. On the other side, the Rockies, currently at the bottom of the National League West with a 48-80 record, will aim to turn their fortunes around.

The Orioles will send right-hander Kyle Bradish to the mound as their starting pitcher. Bradish has been solid this season with an 8-6 record and an impressive 3.03 ERA. His ability to locate his pitches and keep hitters off balance will be crucial to the Orioles’ success in this game. Leading the Orioles’ offense is outfielder Austin Hays, who boasts a batting average of .284 and has been a consistent contributor.

For the Rockies, Chris Flexen will take the mound as their starting pitcher. Flexen has struggled this season with a 1-5 record and a 7.18 ERA. He will need to find his form and provide a strong outing for the Rockies to have a chance against the potent Orioles lineup.
