Texas Rangers at Baltimore Orioles
Final
Recap
BALTIMORE -- The first game-ending call by a so-called robot umpire gave Albert Suárez his first major league save in nine years, ending the Baltimore Orioles' 8-3 win over the Texas Rangers on Wednesday. A 1-2 fastball on the upper, outside corner to Evan Carter was called a ball by plate umpire Manny Gonzalez and Orioles catcher Samuel Basallo tapped his helmet, initiating the challenge. About 13 seconds later, the scoreboard graphic from the Automated Ball-Strike System showed the ball clipped the strike zone. Basallo jogged to the mound as Gonzalez made the announcement, and the catcher hugged Suárez, who allowed one run over three innings for his first save since Aug. 6, 2017, for San Francisco against Arizona.
