Josh Naylor walked into Camden Yards and immediately made enemies. 🔥⚾

June 8 — Mariners 6, Orioles 3. Baltimore.

Naylor came into this series fresh off a controversy in Detroit — a collision with Tigers rookie Kevin McGonigle on Friday, then getting plunked on Saturday. New city. Same energy.

Tied 1-1 in the 5th. Bases loaded. Anthony Nunez delivered a fastball high and inside. Naylor turned on it and just snuck it over the tall wall in right field at Camden Yards. Grand slam. 5-1 Mariners. Game over.

"I think I hit it in the right area, and I guess that's the name of the game in the bigs — hit it where they're not," Naylor said after.

His 7th homer of the season. 4 RBI on the night. Going 7-for-17 (.412) since Seattle opened their 10-game road trip. The guy who started the season 6-for-59 (.102) is officially awake. 👀

The AL West Leaders Keep Rolling

Randy Arozarena added 3 hits including a run-scoring single in the 8th. Emerson Hancock was brilliant — 5 innings, 1 run, 3 strikeouts. Andrés Muñoz closed it out for his 10th save.

The Orioles? 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position. Three straight losses for the first time since getting swept by Tampa Bay in May. Pete Alonso went 0-for-5. Colton Cowser went 0-for-5.

Seattle is AL West leaders. 10 wins in their last 13 games.
