ボルチモア・オリオールズは日曜日にカムデン・ヤーズで行われたミネソタ・ツインズ戦で8-6の勝利を収め、開幕シリーズを勝ち越した。7回にはピート・アロンソがチャレンジ成功後に勝ち越し適時打を放ち、9回には抑えのライアン・ヘルズリーがジョシュ・ベルに対する2度の判定覆し（ABS）に助けられた。ツインズのデレク・シェルトン監督は、ヘルズリーのチャレンジのタイミングを巡る抗議の末に退場処分となった。
ボルチモアは同点で迎えた7回裏、3得点を挙げて勝ち越した。ピート・アロンソがミック・エイベルから右中間へ適時打を放ち、二塁からテイラー・ウォードが生還。さらにアドリー・ラッチマンの適時二塁打とコビー・メイヨの適時打が続き、オリオールズは8-6とリードを広げた。試合序盤、オリオールズは4回にタイラー・オニールの3ラン本塁打、6回にディラン・ビーバーズの2点適時二塁打が飛び出し、デビュー戦となったシェーン・バズが2回に4失点して奪われたリードをひっくり返した。
X（旧Twitter）では、オリオールズの8-6での勝利と、9回にジョシュ・ベルに対する判定を覆したABS（自動ストライク判定システム）の重要性が議論の中心となっている。これに関連して、チャレンジのタイミングに抗議したツインズのデレク・シェルトン監督が退場処分となったことが注目を集めた。ファンの反応は多岐にわたり、ABSシステムを称賛する声、シェルトン監督の対応を批判するツインズファン、勝利とアロンソの打点を喜ぶオリオールズファン、そして中立的な立場からのジャーナリストによる試合の振り返りなどが投稿されている。
