Winning pitcher Ivan Nova improves to 14-4 with an ERA of 3.96 and is now 10-0 over his last 11 starts.

Ryan Adams had an RBI double and Adam Jones drove in his 78th and 79th runs with sac flies as the Orioles six-game win streak ended. The Orioles loaded the bases with no outs in the eighth, but failed to score.

The Orioles had given up just nine total runs during the win streak. They fall to 53-78 and were trying for their first seven-game win streak since they won eight in a row from April 22 to May 1, 2005.
