Road clubs claimed five of the eight victories across the slate. Baltimore, Detroit, Chicago White Sox, Tampa Bay and Los Angeles Dodgers all secured wins away from home. The margins varied but the trend favored the visitors in most cases. Home sides took three contests but the larger spreads belonged to the road winners.

Orioles Top Red Sox at Fenway Park

Baltimore scored five times and limited Boston to a single run. The 5-1 final came at Fenway Park on July 22. The Orioles pitching kept the Red Sox offense in check throughout the contest. This result stands as one of the more decisive road performances of the evening. Baltimore added another strong mark to its recent form on the road.

Tigers Handle Cubs in Chicago

Detroit plated five runs at Wrigley Field. The Cubs managed just one in the 5-1 loss. The game wrapped up on July 23. Detroit's offense clicked at the right moments to pull away from the home side. Such outcomes highlight how visiting teams can dominate even in historic ballparks.

Dodgers Explode for Nine in Philadelphia

Los Angeles put up nine runs at Citizens Bank Park. The Phillies answered with five but fell 9-5. The contest ended on July 22. The Dodgers offense produced early and often against the home pitching staff. This margin ranks among the widest of the full slate.

White Sox Take Down Rangers
