In the bottom of the first, Jordan Montgomery struggled early but settled in. After a leadoff triple from Cedric Mullins, Trey Mancini brought home Baltimore's first run on a sac fly to deep left.
With the bases loaded later in the frame, Montgomery struck out back-to-back hitters to get out of the inning unscathed. We're tied 1-1 entering the second.

Second inning
Nothing doing in the second. On offense, Mike Tauchman ripped a base hit up the middle, stealing second a few pitches later. LeMahieu ended the inning with a hard line drive to center.
Montgomery looked great in his second inning of work, retiring the Orioles in order.
Third inning
Yankees score three runs in the top of the third, hitting the ball hard all over the yard. Luke Voit snuck an RBI single through the left side before Mike Ford crushed a double down the right-field line to drive in two more.
Yankees lead 4-1 entering the bottom of the frame.

Fourth inning
Most of the Yankees' starters have come out of the game by now since they've all gotten two at-bats on offense. Baltimore was able to bring home one run here to cut the deficit to 4-2. Cedric Mullins (who launched a triple off the wall earlier in this game) had an RBI single to shallow right off Tyler Lyons.
Fifth inning
Yankees go down in order in the fifth. Luke Voit popped out in his third AB of the afternoon, slamming his bat on the ground.
Don’t tell Luke Voit these games don’t matter...
