Late Rally by Orioles Locks Up 4-2 Win
The San Francisco Giants got a sterling performance from first baseman Todd Helton, but the Baltimore Orioles still prevailed, 4-2. Helton went 3 for 3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. The win belonged to Neal Cotts in relief. His record improves to 2-0. Aaron Fultz took the loss for San Francisco. San Francisco falls to 9-12.

Paul Lo Duca delivered a big hit for Baltimore. The pinch hitter drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Orioles ahead, 4-2. It was his only hit, but it was a beauty.

"It's nice to deliver when your team's counting on you," said Lo Duca.
