Don't look now, but the Orioles are on a red-hot win streak. Baltimore has won six of its last seven games, and a comeback win against Toronto Friday night was the team's seventh comeback victory this season. The Orioles will try to make it eight Saturday, when they play the Blue Jays in the middle act of a three-game set.
Baltimore will hand the ball to Adam Loewen on Saturday, and he'll be matched against Toronto's Josh Towers. Loewen won his first start of the season and has had two spotty starts since then. Towers, meanwhile, is trying to rebuild his reputation after getting shelled for most of last season -- in the big leagues and at Triple-A.

The Orioles have only won this season series once in the last five years, and Toronto has a 55-41 record against Baltimore since the beginning of the 2002 season. That trend also holds true at Baltimore's Camden Yards, where the Orioles are 19-29 against the Blue Jays over the last five-plus seasons.

Pitching matchup
TOR: RHP Josh Towers, 1-1, 2.03 ERA
Towers worked into the eighth inning of his last start and held Detroit to three hits.

BAL: LHP Adam Loewen, 1-0, 3.95 ERA
Loewen has been erratic this season and has yet to work deeper than the fifth inning.

Player to watch
Nick Markakis had a three-hit game Friday night and drove in the game's winning run.
