Henderson Hits 3-Run Homer in the 8th in the Orioles’ 4-3 Victory over the Cubs

Baltimore infielder Gunnar Henderson hit a three-run homer in the eighth inning, lifting the Orioles to a 4-3 win over the Cubs at Wrigley Field.
Having traded nine big leaguers in July, the Orioles had been scoreless for 18 innings heading into the eighth, including the first 16 frames after the deadline.
In the eighth inning, the rally began with a walk by Colton Cowser and a single from Jeremiah Jackson, and Statcast projected Henderson’s 416-foot blast as his 13th of the season.
Following Henderson’s homer, the Baltimore Orioles secured their seventh victory in 10 games, maintaining season momentum as Chicago stayed a game behind Milwaukee.
Coming out of Thursday’s Trade Deadline, the Orioles reaffirmed confidence in their long-term outlook, with Chicago set to start Colin Rea on Sunday against Brandon Young.
