Mullins drives in 4 as Orioles rally previous White Sox

CHICAGO — Cedric Mullins had three hits and 4 RBIs, together with a tiebreaking single in Baltimore’s three-run eighth inning, and the Orioles beat the Chicago White Sox 8-4 on Sunday.

Gunnar Henderson had two hits and scored 3 times as Baltimore rallied for the win within the rubber sport of the weekend collection. The Orioles erased a shaky begin by Grayson Rodriguez with a 12-hit assault.

Chicago scored every of its 4 runs within the first. Gavin Sheets hit a three-run homer, and Jake Burger added a solo drive.

But that was it for the White Sox on a cool, damp afternoon, and their pitching faltered as soon as once more within the group’s fourth loss in 5 video games. Dylan Cease issued 5 of the group’s seven walks, working its whole to 26 walks for the collection.

Mike Baumann (2-0), Austin Voth and Félix Bautista mixed for 4 innings of one-hit ball in reduction of Rodriguez. The rookie right-hander allowed six hits, struck out eight and walked two in his third huge league begin.

Baltimore’s rally started within the fourth. After Mateo’s sacrifice fly, Terrin Vavra reached on an error on Burger at third base. Mullins then made it 4-3 with a two-run triple to left.

“I was drawing a lot of walks in a short time span, which means the eye was working,” Mullins stated. “It was just a matter of the bat trying to catch up. Today, I was able to do so.”

Henderson scored on a wild pitch by Cease within the sixth, tying the sport. Cease departed after retiring Ryan Mountcastle on a foul popup to first, stranding the bases loaded.

Baltimore supervisor Brandon Hyde was happy with how his membership “chipped away” at Cease in dreary circumstances after a protracted rain delay.

“Not easy to do,” Hyde stated. “I think the guy finished second in the (American League) Cy Young (voting). It was a 4-0 game. It was 30 degrees outside, it felt like.”

Kenyan Middleton acquired three outs for Chicago earlier than lefty Aaron Bummer (0-1) allowed three runs on two hits and two walks within the eighth.

Mullins lined a single to heart, scoring Mateo. Anthony Santander capped the large eighth for Baltimore with one other RBI single.

SLOW START

White Sox supervisor Pedro Grifol stated Cease would “probably tell you he wasn’t the sharpest” on Sunday, “but he was good.”

Chicago dropped to 6-10. It continues to be searching for its first collection win this season.

“I just think we got to minimize baserunners,” Grifol stated. “They had a lot of traffic the last three games, but we also had leads in three games. So I’m not going to sit here and say we’re close.”

Orioles: INF Ramón Urías (head) has a contusion behind his left ear and stays in concussion protocol after leaving Saturday’s loss after being hit by a pitch. Hyde stated Urías awoke feeling higher Sunday. … LHP Keedan Akin is predicted to rejoin the group from the paternity checklist on Tuesday.
