The Baltimore Orioles beat the Colorado Rockies 2-1 on Monday night, with outfielder Colton Cowser making a leaping catch above the center-field fence to preserve the win. Yahoo Sports reports the catch robs Jake McCarthy of a game-winning home run for the final out.
Cade Povich pitches five innings for Baltimore, while Cowser drives in the go-ahead run in the seventh. The game at Coors Field includes a 98-minute rain delay, according to Yahoo Sports. The win moves the Orioles to 69-69, extending a streak in which Baltimore wins four straight and six of seven, reaching .500 for the first time since a doubleheader against Houston on April 30.
Other coverage provided the same central outcome and the key play, describing Cowser’s homer-robbing catch as the decisive moment.
