"Just trying to put the ball in play and I got lucky tonight." Staked to an early 1-0 lead on solo homer by Jones, Baltimore starter Jake Arrieta (2-6) breezed through the first two innings before being touched up for two runs in the third. Lawrie and Cooper hit back-to-back singles and Davis advanced the runners with a well-placed bunt between the third-base line and pitchers mound.
