Oakland, California - The Baltimore Orioles played a great game on Saturday, taking advantage of costly errors by the A's to get their third-straight win.

The Orioles, led by former All-Star pitcher Matt Harvey (32), were in command most of the game, rolling over the Athletics 8-4. Saturday's win was the third-straight for the team, and also Harvey's third win in a row on the mound this season.

The game was relatively quiet for both teams until the third inning, when Baltimore busted the game wide open with six runs in the top half. D.J. Stewart took part in it, blasting a two-run homer, to help give Harvey a comfortable lead. Harvey finished pitching five and two-thirds innings, striking out one and walking three batters.

Austin Hays hit for two RBIs to start the run count for the Orioles in the third innings and scored another run himself in the game. Every other batter that was at the plate in the game for Baltimore scored a hit as well.

Ramón Laureano and Mark Canha hit solo shots for the A's, while Seth Brown and Tony Kemp batted in runs as well, but it wasn't enough to overcome the errors and wild pitches thrown to Oakland's gradual demise.
