Emmanuel Rivera hit a game-winning two-run single in Baltimore's four-run bottom of the ninth and the Orioles, who didn't have a hit through 8 2/3 innings, rallied past the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers for a 4-3 victory Saturday night.
Yoshinobu Yamamoto came within one out of throwing a no-hitter, but the Dodgers were saddled with their fifth consecutive loss.
Jackson Holliday's ninth-inning home run with two outs broke up the no-hit bid and Yamamoto came out of the game. The right-hander finished with 10 strikeouts and issued two walks.
Blake Treinen (1-3) replaced Yamamoto, but he didn't record an out. Jeremiah Jackson doubled off Treinen and then Gunnar Henderson was hit by a pitch, so that allowed the potential tying and winning runs to come to the plate. Ryan Mountcastle drew a walk to load the bases and Colton Cowser's walk forced in the second run of the inning.
Tanner Scott gave up Rivera's single. A night earlier, he surrendered Samuel Basallo's game-winning home run in the ninth in a 2-1 outcome.
Earlier, Yamamoto stayed in the game after a weather delay before the bottom of the fifth inning.
Holliday's 17th home run continued his recent hot stretch. Dylan Beavers and Samuel Basallo worked walks off Yamamoto earlier in the game.
Mookie Betts drove in two runs for the Dodgers (78-64), who racked up 10 hits. Freddie Freeman and Miguel Rojas joined Betts with two hits.
The Orioles (66-76) extended their winning streak to five games. Albert Suarez (1-0) was the winning pitcher in relief, giving up one run in three innings.
Baltimore starter Trevor Rogers gave up more than one run for the first time in an eight-start stretch. He was charged with two runs on eight hits in 5 1/3 innings while issuing one walk and striking out six.
Shohei Ohtani opened the scoring with an RBI groundout in the third inning. An infield single by Betts in the fifth inning made it 2-0.
Betts tripled in Ben Rortvedt in the seventh inning.
The start of the game was delayed because of weather.
In pregame activities, the Orioles celebrated the 30th anniversary of Cal Ripken Jr.'s record-setting 2,131st consecutive game played. That occasion for the Hall of Fame shortstop and third baseman came on Sept. 6, 1995.
