Orioles 8, Blue Jays 3

BALTIMORE (AP) ― Adam Jones homered in the second inning, then got a key infield single in a three-run fifth that carried the Baltimore Orioles past the Toronto Blue Jays 8-3 on Monday night.

One day after being sidelined with a swollen right ankle, Jones hit a two-run homer and scored twice. He has reached base safely in 20 straight games, going 29-for-78 (.372) with 15 RBIs.

Ramon Hernandez homered for the Orioles, who climbed out of last place in the AL East ahead of Toronto.

Baltimore went up 6-3 in the fifth on a two-run single by Melvin Mora and Luke Scott's RBI single.

Jesse Litsch (8-7) allowed six runs in 4 2-3 innings and fell to 1-6 since May 29.

Baltimore rookie Radhames Liz (4-2) gave up three runs, five hits and six walks in 5 2/3 innings.
