Dylan Beavers delivered a go-ahead single in the sixth inning, and a quartet of Baltimore pitchers combined to allow just four hits, leading the Orioles to a 2-1 victory over the visiting Athletics on Sunday afternoon and preventing a series sweep. 
Chris Bassitt (3-2) tossed six solid innings, while Rico Garcia worked the ninth for his third save despite issuing a walk. Beavers and Gunnar Henderson each collected two hits for Baltimore, which snapped a three-game losing streak and earned only its third win in the last 11 games.

Athletics first baseman Nick Kurtz extended his majors-leading on-base streak to 34 games by drawing a walk in the eighth inning. Tyler Soderstrom added a double as part of Oakland’s four-hit effort. Starter Luis Severino (2-4) was charged with two runs on six hits and four walks over 5 1/3 innings, striking out four. The Athletics were aiming for their second winning streak of at least four games this season.
Baltimore used Keegan Akin as an opener for one shutout inning before Bassitt entered and worked through the seventh. Bassitt scattered four hits with one walk and six strikeouts. Anthony Nunez pitched the eighth, and Garcia closed it out with one strikeout. Orioles pitchers combined for 10 strikeouts but issued four walks.
The Athletics took a 1-0 lead on Carlos Cortes’ sacrifice fly in the second inning. Henderson tied the game with an RBI infield single in the third. Baltimore loaded the bases with two outs in the fifth but failed to score, leaving eight runners on base for the game. In the sixth, Beavers won a nine-pitch at-bat with his go-ahead single, ending Severino’s outing. Athletics reliever Justin Sterner then escaped a bases-loaded jam by recording two strikeouts to end the threat.
