Orioles 4, Athletics 0
BALTIMORE — J.J. Hardy, Luke Scott and Adam Jones homered, Chris Jakubauskas pitched five shutout innings and the Orioles handed the Athletics their season-worst eighth straight loss. Baltimore will try to complete a three-game sweep tonight. The Orioles had lost eight straight series to Oakland since July 2007. The A's skid is their longest since an eight-game slide from Sept. 27, 2009, to April 5, 2010.
