Down 3-2 in Game 1 of the ALDS, Gunnar Henderson singled to put the tying run on base for the Baltimore Orioles in the bottom of the ninth inning on Saturday.
What fans could see was Henderson, the AL Rookie of the Year favorite, breaking for second base with Aaron Hicks at the plate. Then they saw Texas Rangers catcher Jonah Heim, one of the better arms in baseball, throw Henderson by a couple feet to stifle the Orioles' comeback attempt.One Hicks strikeout and Adam Frazier groundout later, the Rangers were celebrating a 3-2 win to take a 1-0 series lead..
It's unclear what kind of miscommunication happened, as it could either have been Henderson misreading a signal not to steal, or Hicks missing a hit-and-run call. Henderson might have been a little confused after getting his orders, as he"I was just out there trying to play hard," Henderson said,"and I felt like we had a good chance to do it. We had some long times at the plate, so it was a good opportunity right there.
The Orioles are now two losses from their dream season ending early. They will try to bounce back in Game 2 on Sunday, with starting pitcher Grayson Rodriguez facing the Rangers' Jordan Mongtomery.Residents have mixed feelings over large ad on Wash. ferry
