Davis enters for injured Manny, lifts O’s past Yanks
Manny Machado’s right knee injury could have a devastating long-term effect on the Orioles, and with shortstop J.J. Hardy also injured, the O’s were short on infielders when Machado exited Monday’s game against the Yankees in the third inning. In a pinch, Chris Davis had to fill in at third base. In his first at-bat in the fifth, Davis crushed Chris Capuano’s slider to right field for a go-ahead two-run homer, and the Orioles cruised to an 11-3 win against the Yankees at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
