The Seattle Mariners were one of the hottest teams in baseball going into their most recent series against the Baltimore Orioles from Aug. 12-14. The Mariners' hot streak came to an end against the Orioles.

The Boston Red Sox will get their first look at MLB’s No. 8 prospect when the Orioles come to Fenway Park for a two-game series beginning Monday night.

George Kirby pitched seven three-hit innings, and the Seattle Mariners beat the Baltimore Orioles 1-0 for their eighth victory in a row.

On Friday, Orioles rookie right-hander Brandon Young came within four outs of a perfect game. On Saturday, Baltimore called up outfielder Dylan Beavers (the club’s No. 3 prospect per MLB Pipeline), who then made his big league debut.

To make room for Basallo and Cowser on the active roster, the Orioles optioned first baseman/outfielder Ryan Noda and outfielder Daniel Johnson to Triple A. Right-hander Zach Eflin was moved to the 60-day injured list. Eflin will undergo a season-ending lumbar microdiscectomy on Monday to address a lower back injury.
