Can Chris Davis and the Orioles stay on a roll?

Davis has hit five home runs in the last three games. According to ESPN Stats & Info, he's the first Oriole to have back-to-back multi-homer games since Luke Scott on May 28-29, 2009 against the Tigers.

According to STATS, Davis is the first Oriole to have five home runs in a three-game stretch since Mark Reynolds on July 2-4, 2011.

Junior Lake is starting in left field today against Blue Jays left-hander David Price. Steve Pearce is at first base and Davis is the designated hitter.

Matt Wieters isn't in the lineup despite being 15-for-44 with six doubles and a home run against Price.

The Orioles rank sixth in the American League with a .523 (23-21) winning percentage in day games this season. Adam Jones is tied for seventh in the majors and tied for sixth in the American League with a .347 (52-for-150) average in day games.
