Jeff Hoffman got the win, improving to 2-0. He pitched 6 innings, giving up 6 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 8 and walking 2. The save was credited to Brandon Morrow, his 3rd.

Polanco had a key at-bat for Baltimore early in the game. With a runner on 1st, he hit a 2-run home run. It was his 5th home run of the season and gave Baltimore an early 3-1 lead.

"Feels good to get the job done," Polanco said after the game.
