Wieters Goes The Other Way For Game-winning Hit
Matt Wieters stroked an opposite-field double in the eighth inning to drive in Adam Jones with the winning run in the Orioles' 4-3 victory over the Royals. It was the fifth time in his career that Wieters went the other way to deliver a game-winning RBI in Late-Inning Pressure Situations -- three batting left-handed and two right-handed.

Wieters Hits A Walkoff Grand Slam For The Orioles
Matt Wieters homered with the bases loaded in the bottom of the 10th inning to give the Orioles a 10-6 win over the Rays. It was the first game-ending grand slam in the major leagues since May 13 last year when there were two: by the Reds' Joey Votto and the Marlins' Giancarlo Stanton. Wieters is the third player to hit a walkoff grand slam at Camden Yards, which opened in 1992. The others were Chris Hoiles (May 17, 1996) and Harold Baines (May 4, 1999).

Wieters Raps The Rays... Again
From Elias: Matt Wieters was at it again, belting another home run against the Rays in what turned out to be a 5-4 Orioles victory. Wieters, now in his fifth major-league season, possesses career numbers against Joe Maddon's team that would be the envy of anyone, batting .341 with 12 homers and 40 RBIs in 60 games. Since the start of the 2009 season, no other player has produced against Tampa Bay the across-the-board numbers in the Triple Crown categories generated by Wieters.

MLB - Cheeri-O's
Matt Wieters' 1st-inning home run marks the second straight year that the Orioles have homered in their very first inning of the season. Nick Markakis did it last year against Minnesota, meaning Baltimore is the only team to homer in the first inning of both the 2012 and 2013 seasons. Prior to last year, the Orioles hadn't had a first-inning-of-season homer since Mike Devereaux took Kevin Appier deep in 1994.
