Faced with the task of trying to mount a comeback thanks to some early runs from the Kansas City Royals, the Orioles got a shot in the arm from Adam Jones. The star center fielder delivered a two-run home run to tie the game up at 3-3, much to the delight of the home crowd in Baltimore.

Hard-throwing youngster Yordano Ventura was excellent in the early innings against the Orioles. He made a mistake to Jones here, however, getting way too much of the plate with a fastball and paying the price as this shot from Jones left the yard in a hurry.
