Baltimore Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson made a diving stop near second base on Edward Oliveras' grounder in a try for a game-ending double play, then threw wildly past first for an error as two runs scored and gave the Pittsburgh Pirates a 3-2 victory on Sunday.
With the wild win, the Pirates improved to 8-2 for the first time since 2018.
Ryan O'Hearn, Gunnar Henderson and Cedric Mullins homered, Grayson Rodriguez pitched 6 1/3 strong innings and the Baltimore Orioles beat Pittsburgh 5-2 on Friday to spoil a Pirates home opener that was played through occasional snow flurries.
Grayson Rodriguez (2-0) gave up solo homers to Oneil Cruz and Jared Triolo among six hits. He struck out seven and walked two in a matchup with fellow 22-year-old Jared Jones.
Former New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks is now with the LA Angels, but he was welcomed back to Baltimore last weekend after a pleasant short tenure with the O's last year.
