The Baltimore Orioles' offense rose to the occasion with seven runs against the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 2. It was a strong comeback after the team's previous 5-2 loss. The O's look to secure a series win as they face off for the series finale.

Jackson Holliday continued his hot streak with a two-run home run in Game 2. The O's will hand over the ball to Dean Kremer as their starter in Game 3. Kremer has struggled in the ongoing season with a 4.39 ERA and a 4-8 record, but the O's have often provided support from the plate.

The Blue Jays squandered a 3-2 lead and failed to score more in Game 2. Their bullpen faltered, and now their struggles in the AL East continue. Toronto (52-62) is 10 games behind the .500 mark and 15.5 games behind Baltimore (68-47) at the top.

Kevin Gausman will take the mound for his team. He has had his fair share of struggles and is holding on to a 4.56 ERA, with a 9-8 record with 119 strikeouts. Top hitters will need to step up to provide support for Gausman.
