It was another improbable night for the surprising Baltimore Orioles.

Hendriks aided the cause. Instead of pumping another fastball at the rookie, he tried to bury a curveball and left it up. And Stowers, stunningly, left the yard.

His 404-foot drive tied the game 3-3 and made history: Stowers became the first Oriole whose first major league home run tied the game in the ninth inning or later since Rich Coggins in 1973.“I kind of blacked out a little bit,” Stowers said, trying futilely to remember.Says outfielder Anthony Santander: “The place was about to fall over. It was super exciting, a crazy moment. And the entire time I was calling for it to happen in my head and it gave us the opportunity to win the game later.

Santander would take care of that himself, with a fly ball single with runners at the corners off Jake Diekman to score the automatic runner. But it was the guy bridging the gap from Stowers to Santander who once again stole the show. Felix Bautista, the hulking rookie reliever who assumed closer duties earlier this month, continued a stunning campaign by setting down six consecutive White Sox in the 10th and 11th innings, nullifying the automatic runner at second in both innings and lowering his ERA to 1.62.
