Cowser Hits 2nd Game-Winning HR in 2 Days, Giving the Baltimore Orioles a 9-7 Win over Tampa Bay

  • On Monday, Baltimore Orioles outfielder Colton Cowser hit a two-run game-winning homer in the 13th inning to complete a 9-7 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays, his second consecutive walk-off shot after Sunday's three-run drive against Detroit.
  • After struggling for over a year to build on his impressive 2024 rookie season, Cowser has sparked a resurgence, hitting.333 with all three of his home runs over an eight-game stretch.
  • Cowser's 420-foot blast came after Leody Taveras doubled and Jackson Holliday tied the game with a sacrifice fly; the homer was initially ruled an out until a replay challenge showed Cowser's arm beneath catcher Nick Fortes' tag.
  • Manager Craig Albernaz praised the team's resilience, saying he was 'proud of our guys' for fighting back in what he called 'a great team win,' and Cowser becomes Baltimore's first player since Fred Lynn in 1985 to hit walk-off homers on consecutive days.
  • The Orioles rallied from two runs down in the 11th and 13th innings for their first victory in four tries against the AL-leading Rays, positioning the 24-30 team to break its season-long pattern of late-game losses.
