Brown Lifts Orioles to 10-8 Triumph
Fans at Tiger Stadium were not deterred by the threat of rain. They came to see their hometown Detroit Tigers take on the Baltimore Orioles.

Orioles third baseman Chris Brown put his stamp on his team's 10-8 win over the Detroit Tigers. Brown was 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for Baltimore in the contest. Even with the win, the Orioles have a dismal 14-56 record.

Baltimore used the timely hitting of Hal Morris to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the fourth inning to put the Orioles on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Brown told a Baltimore Today reporter. "Sometimes we need just to relax."
