Dylan Beavers singled home the go-ahead run with two outs in the seventh inning, two batters after All-Star reliever Jason Adam collapsed in pain on the mound, and the Baltimore Orioles beat the San Diego Padres 4-3 on Monday.
San Diego lost its second straight and dropped 2 1/2 games behind the first-place Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West.
Adam was carted off the field after getting hurt when he tried to turn toward Gunnar Henderson’s chopper that went off the mound for an infield single. The right-hander immediately signaled for an athletic trainer and grabbed his left knee. He could be seen saying he “felt something pop.”
After receiving attention from trainers, Adam (8-4) was helped to his feet and into a cart, with his left leg propped up on the seat.
