Ty Wigginton and Luke Scott hit successive homers in the seventh inning, and the Baltimore Orioles tied a season-high with five longballs in a 9-6 comeback victory over the Oakland Athletics on Wednesday night.

Adam Jones, Corey Patterson and Miguel Tejada also connected for Baltimore, which trailed 6-3 before rallying for its fifth win in six games.

Patterson hit a solo shot in the fourth, Wigginton tied it with a two-run drive in the seventh against Brad Ziegler and Scott homered off Cedrick Bowers (0-1).

Wigginton's homer was the first this season by a Baltimore first baseman. It was his 14th, the first since May 22.

Scott had a career-high three walks before launching a shot to center. He strained his left hamstring near first base and limped home.
