The Baltimore Orioles will look to get back on track at home coming off a series loss against the Milwaukee Brewers over the weekend.

Based on how their division rival New York Yankees have played so far, it's important that they take care of business against the lesser teams on their schedule.

That's who they have in the Minnesota Twins.

The Orioles' starting rotation has been roughed up at the start of games recently and was a major reason why they were handed a series loss against the Brewers. They were hoping to avoid getting in an early hole on Monday, but it looked like that might not happen.

With a runner on third base and two outs, there was a sharply hit ball to left center field that continued to carry. If it would have gotten down, then Baltimore would have been trying to come from behind once again.

Instead, center fielder Cedric Mullins made a sensational play that ended the frame.

This was ultimately a huge play in the game.

In the bottom half of the first, the Orioles were able to strike for two runs when Jordan Westburg hit a double and took the lead.

They never trailed or were level the rest of the way, winning 7-4 and pushing their record to 10-6.

Monday was also the first time Baltimore hadn't trailed in eight games.

While they have done an excellent job of coming from behind, that isn't always sustainable. The Orioles will need to get off to quicker starts in games like they did against the Twins to really become the dominant team they were billed as coming into the season.

When that happens, the sky is the limit for this squad.
