BALTIMORE -- There seems to be no end to the list of players capable of carrying the Baltimore Orioles to victory this season. The latest unlikely hero is Chris Dickerson, who hit a three-run homer with two outs in the ninth inning to carry the Orioles past the Detroit Tigers 7-5 Friday night. Detroit closer Jose Valverde (0-1) entered in the ninth with a 5-3 lead after starter Max Scherzer retired the final 16 batters he faced. Nick Markakis led off with a homer on a 0-2 pitch before Adam Jones singled and took third on a single by Chris Davis. Valverde (0-1) then retired Matt Wieters and J.J. Hardy on popups before Dickerson hit a 2-1 pitch into the bleachers in right-centre, much to the delight of the sellout crowd of 46,249. Dickerson was making his first start since May 23 following a bout with a sore wrist. Batting eighth in the lineup, he was 0 for 3 with two strikeouts before connecting. "Its an amazing feeling, just to contribute in such a big situation," Dickerson said. "This team just claws back every single time. Im just so happy I could cap it off for them." He never before hit a game-ending home run at any level. "I knew right away," Dickerson said. "It was awesome. Thats the type of feeling you just want to bottle up and take home forever. First walk-off at any level. Just an incredible feeling, an incredible moment." Jones, Davis and Manny Machado have provided many big hits for the Orioles this season, but guys such as Nate McLouth, Steve Pearce and Dickerson have done their part, too. "That says a lot about our ballclub, up and down the lineup," Markakis said. "Anybody can hurt you. I think thats a positive thing weve got going for us right now." Manager Buck Showalter said, "Its not like one guys got to carry the load." Darren ODay (3-0) got the final out in the ninth for the Orioles, who have won eight of 11. Miguel Cabrera and Avisail Garcia both homered and drove in two runs for the Tigers, who have lost four straight. This one hurt more than most. "We obviously let one get away," manager Jim Leyland said. "Scherzer got us where we wanted to be and then we just didnt close it out. Scherzer was spent and that was going to be his last inning. His pitch count was getting up there pretty good. It was no brainer to bring in Valverde." After yielding a third-inning home run to Jones, Scherzer didnt allow another runner to reach and was poised to become the first Detroit pitcher to start a season 8-0 since Jeremy Bonderman in 2007. The right-hander struck out 10 and walked two, but he threw a season-high 119 pitches before being replaced by Valverde, who came to the mound with a 0.75 ERA. He walked off with his first loss and a 3.55 ERA. "I miss a couple of pitches," Valverde said. "They have some good hitters. Tomorrow is going to be a new day. I had a tough day. Theres nothing I can do. I feel bad for Max because he threw a good game." Orioles starter Miguel Gonzalez allowed a season-high five earned runs over six innings and allowed both Detroit homers. The Tigers went up 2-0 in the first inning when Andy Dirks singled and Cabrera hit his 16th homer of the season. Hes the first Detroit player to hit 12 homers in May since Willie Horton in 1968. Baltimore got a run back in the second, getting singles from Jones and Davis before Wieters delivered a sacrifice fly. In the third, Markakis walked before Jones connected to give the Orioles a brief 3-2 lead. A two-out RBI single by Garcia tied it in the fourth, and Detroit went up 4-3 in the fifth when Dirks and Cabrera singled ahead of a run-scoring grounder by Victor Martinez. Garcia hit his second homer of the season for a 5-3 lead in the sixth. NOTES: Cabrera went 2 for 5 with a walk and took over the AL lead in hits with 81. He began the game tied with Machado, who was held hitless. ... Orioles RHP Pedro Strop, whos been on the DL since May 25 with a lower back strain, is slated to throw a simulated game Saturday. ...

MINNEAPOLIS -- The Atlanta Braves will try to cap a nine-game road trip on a positive note on Wednesday when they play the second of a two-game Interleague series against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field.After losing six of their first seven games on the trip, the Braves emerged from Tuesdays series opener with a 2-0 victory behind six shutout innings from starting pitcher Lucas Harrell.Itd be great (to finish the trip with a win), said Braves interim manager Brian Snitker. Its been a rough road trip. The one game we won in Cincinnati was hard fought and it wasnt good in Colorado. It was good, after the off day (Monday), guys came out and played a really good ball game.In addition to a solid outing from Harrell, the Braves got a solo homer from third baseman Adonis Garcia, who ran his on-base streak to 16 games and his hitting streak to a career-best eight games.During the hitting streak, Garcia is hitting at a .394 clip.Hes been really good, Snitker said.The Twins, who went 4-3 on a recent road trip to Detroit and Boston, also had a day off Monday but were unable to awaken the bats against Harrell. Minnesota, which has been one of the hottest offensive teams in baseball over the last month, stranded seven runners and went 0-for-11 at the plate with runnners in scoring position in Tuesdays loss.dddddddddddde just squandered opportunities early, said Twins manager Paul Molitor. We were within striking distance. The bats werent particularly good for the most part. It felt a little sluggish.Both teams will look for another strong outing from their starters, with Atlanta sending right-hander Mike Foltynewicz to the bump. One of the Braves most consistent starters this season, Foltynewicz boasts a 3.79 ERA over 11 starts but took the loss his last time out, allowing three runs on four hits and a season-high five walks in a 7-3 loss to the Rockies last Thursday.Tyler Duffey will look to rebound for the Twins. He allowed six runs on nine hits and a walk in just 2 1/3 innings on Thursday in a blowout loss to the Red Sox at Fenway Park. The outing was the shortest since he went just two innings in his major league debut last August.Since Minnesota beat Atlanta in the 1991 World Series, the Braves have dominated the Interleague series between the clubs; their victory on Tuesday improved the Braves record to 3-1 at Target Field and Atlanta has won its last six overall against Minnesota.
