Orioles 7-2 Winners Over Washington
Orioles designated hitter Shohei Ohtani left his mark on his team's 7-2 win over the Washington Nationals. Ohtani, who finished 5th in the NL in ERA with 2.98 in 2023, went 1 for 2 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2 for Baltimore in the contest. Nick Nelson was the winner. He's now 1-3. The loser was 2021 Cy Young Award winner Justin Verlander. The Orioles improved their record to 20-24 with the win over Washington.

With Baltimore leading 2-1 in the bottom of the third, Ohtani hit a changeup from Justin Verlander for a solo home run. It was his 9th home run of the season and put the Orioles ahead, 3-1.

"Nice win for us," said Ohtani. "Now we'll go after the next one."
