De Aza swats pair as O’s lower magic number to nine

In Tuesday night’s 4-1 win over the Red Sox at Fenway, a new face put the first-place Orioles one step closer to October, with Alejandro De Aza homering twice to whittle Baltimore’s magic number to clinch the division to nine. The O’s maintained a 10-game lead in the American League East and are 33-19 against Boston since 2012.
