BALTIMORE (AP) Manny Machado doubled in the tiebreaking run in the eighth inning, and the Baltimore Orioles rallied to beat the Toronto Blue Jays 3-2 on Wednesday night.

Rookie Joey Rickard had three hits and scored the decisive run for the Orioles, who won despite leaving 13 on base and going 3 for 14 with runners in scoring position.

Baltimore erased a 2-1 deficit in the seventh before taking the lead for the first time in the eighth.

Rickard singled off Brett Cecil (0-3) with one out and moved up on a passed ball by Russell Martin. Machado then hit an opposite-field fly to right that dropped between two fielders, scoring Rickard with an unearned run.

Darren O'Day (1-0) got three straight outs in the eighth and Zach Britton worked the ninth for his fourth save.
