PITTSBURGH (AP) — Baltimore Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson made a diving stop near second base on Edward Oliveras’ grounder in a try for a game-ending double play, then threw wildly past first for an error as two runs scored and gave the Pittsburgh Pirates a 3-2 win. With the wild win, the Pirates improved to 8-2 for the first time since 2018. Henderson gloved Olivares’ grounder and his momentum carried him into second. He tagged the base with his glove, and Henderson hooked his throw around the runner and to the outfield side of Ryan Mountcastle at first as two runs scored.
