The Baltimore Orioles rode a solid performance from 29-year-old starting pitcher Nestor Cortes to a win, beating the Washington Nationals, 4-1, at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The third-place Orioles improved to 57-63.

Esteury Ruiz had a big 2-run double for the Orioles in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Baltimore leading 2-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a sinker from 25-year old right-handed pitcher Brayan Bello and swatted a double to left. It was his 24th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Orioles ahead, 4-0.

"It's nice to step up when your team needs you," said Ruiz.
