August 2 - The visiting Baltimore Orioles, who fortified their pitching by adding right-hander Jack Flaherty at the trade deadline on Tuesday, will try to maintain their dominance of the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday night. The Orioles are 7-1 against the Blue Jays and have clinched the season series. The Blue Jays also made a deal with the Cardinals, acquiring shortstop Paul DeJong, who did not play Tuesday. "(DeJong) is an interesting fit for us without the injury," Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins said. The Blue Jays are scheduled to start left-hander Yusei Kikuchi (8-3, 3.79) on Wednesday.
