Multi-HR Day for Garcia as Twins Overpower Orioles, 15-8
The Baltimore Orioles inaugurated the 2018 campaign with a disappointing 15-8 loss to the Minnesota Twins at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Minnesota right fielder Avisail Garcia had a big impact on the outcome. He was 3 for 6 with 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 6. The winner was Juan Nicasio in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Bartolo Colon took the loss.

Garcia had a big at-bat with the bases loaded in the top of the first inning, when he hit a run-scoring single. The Twins went on to win.

Garcia called the triumph "a good team win."
