Wright gets it right as Orioles use 3 HRs to beat Royals 4-1

Published Jun. 7, 2016 12:00 a.m. ET

BALTIMORE (AP) Mark Trumbo and Matt Wieters hit solo homers in the seventh inning to back a sparkling pitching performance by Mike Wright, and Baltimore Orioles beat Kansas City 4-1 Monday night to extend the Royals' losing streak to five games.

Manny Machado also homered for the Orioles, who have won five of six - all in come-from-behind fashion.

Wright and Kansas City left-hander Danny Duffy were locked in a scoreless duel until the Royals pushed across an unearned run in the seventh.
