    Moore provides key hit as Orioles top Blue Jays

    <h3>BALTIMORE 8, TORONTO 6 (12 INNINGS)</h3>TORONTO (Ticker) -- Wins have been few and far between for theBaltimore Orioles recently.


    Scott Moore's RBI single highlighted a two-run 12th inning thatgave the Orioles an 8-6 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays onSunday.


    Nick Markakis hit his 20th home run and collected his 100th RBIof the season for the Orioles, who won for just the sixth timein their last 25 games.


    With the game knotted 6-6, Aubrey Huff opened the Baltimore 12thwith a single and advanced to third base on Freddie Bynum'sground-rule double off reliever Jason Frasor.


    After Paul Bako struck out, Moore singled home Huff and movedBynum to third. Brian Roberts followed with a sacrifice fly togive Baltimore an 8-6 edge.


    Baltimore reliever Rob Bell (4-3) picked up the win afterpitching two scoreless innings and Fernando Cabrera tossed aperfect 12th to record the first save of his career.

    In addition to the two decisive runs, Frasor (1-5) allowed threehits and did not walk a batter while striking out one in 1 2/3innings.


    Toronto gained the upperhand early as Adam Lind and Russ Adamshit back-to-back homers on consecutive pitches to give Toronto a3-1 edge in the second inning.


    Baltimore fell behind 4-1, but chipped away at the lead andeventually tied the game in the seventh as Miguel Tejada, whohad been 0-for-11 in the series, delivered a two-out RBI single.

    The Orioles then took a 6-4 lead in the eighth on a two-out,two-run single by Tike Redman, but the two-run edge didn't last.

    The Blue Jays loaded the bases in the bottom of the inning and,despite failing to come through with a clutch hit again, theteam managed to tie the game with run-scoring groundouts by AlexRios and Lyle Overbay.


    Acquired from Cincinnati on September 7, Baltimore starterVictor Santos struggled for the second time in as many starts.The righthander allowed four runs, seven hits and three walkswhile striking out two in 4 1/3 innings. In his debut with theOrioles on Tuesday, the 30-year-old journeyman allowed five runsin 2 2/3 innings.


    Toronto starter Shaun Marcum allowed three runs, five hits andtwo walks while striking out four in five innings.

    Moore provides key hit as Orioles top Blue Jays

    <h3>BALTIMORE 8, TORONTO 6 (12 INNINGS)</h3>TORONTO (Ticker) -- Wins have been few and far between for theBaltimore Orioles recently.


    Scott Moore's RBI single highlighted a two-run 12th inning thatgave the Orioles an 8-6 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays onSunday.


    Nick Markakis hit his 20th home run and collected his 100th RBIof the season for the Orioles, who won for just the sixth timein their last 25 games.


    "It definitely was a long day, but our pitchers did a good joband we got the hits when it counted," Markakis said.

    With the game knotted 6-6, Aubrey Huff opened the Baltimore 12thwith a single and advanced to third base on Freddie Bynum'sground-rule double off reliever Jason Frasor.


    After Paul Bako struck out, Moore singled home Huff and movedBynum to third. Brian Roberts followed with a sacrifice fly togive Baltimore an 8-6 edge.


    "We had a chance to win that game and my job was to get that guyin," said Moore, whose go-ahead hit bounced off the glove ofToronto first baseman Matt Stairs.


    Baltimore reliever Rob Bell (4-3) picked up the win afterpitching two scoreless innings and Fernando Cabrera tossed aperfect 12th to record the first save of his career.

    "We felt like we got the most out of everybody today andcontributions from a lot of different guys," Baltimore managerDave Trembley said.


    In addition to the two decisive runs, Frasor (1-5) allowed threehits and did not walk a batter while striking out one in 1 2/3innings.


    Toronto gained the upperhand early as Adam Lind and Russ Adamshit back-to-back homers on consecutive pitches to give Toronto a3-1 edge in the second inning.


    "It was nice to get the lead at the beginning of the game, butit was a long game and it sucks to lose," Lind said.

    Baltimore fell behind 4-1, but chipped away at the lead andeventually tied the game in the seventh as Miguel Tejada, whohad been 0-for-11 in the series, delivered a two-out RBI single.

    The Orioles then took a 6-4 lead in the eighth on a two-out,two-run single by Tike Redman, but the two-run edge didn't last.
