It had to end sometime for Zach Britton.
The Orioles' All-Star left-handed closer had converted an American League-record 60 consecutive save opportunities. Not since Sept. 20, 2015 had Britton blown a save, but it happened Aug. 23.
Britton allowed two runs on three hits in a game the Orioles led by two entering the ninth.
Right-hander Miguel Castro, who was away from the team for three days on bereavement leave, pitched 3.2 scoreless innings as Britton was relieved in the middle of the ninth, something that rarely happens.
