Our first Throwback Thursday moment of this offseason came all they way back on Nov. 2, when we highlighted Manny Machado's three-homer night capped off by a walk-off grand slam against the Angels.
Well, for this weeks' #TBT moment, we're going back to the end of that very same homestand. After Machado opened the six-game stand at Camden Yards with the walk-off slam, he closed it with another walk-off home run against the Athletics. After having lost three of their previous four games, Machado's homer on Aug. 23 in the 12th inning gave the Orioles an 8-7 win and started a seven-game winning streak.
