Yoshinobu Yamamoto stood on the brink of history Saturday night at Camden Yards — one out away from a no-hitter that would have stopped the Dodgers’ losing streak in its tracks. Instead, the Orioles took that script, ripped it to shreds, and set it on fire. Jackson Holliday’s solo home run broke up the bid, and from there the floodgates opened: a double, a hit-by-pitch, two walks, and finally a walk-off single from Emmanuel Rivera that turned a near-perfect night into the Dodgers’ most painful collapse of the season. For Baltimore, it was a rally for the ages. For Los Angeles, it was a reminder that in baseball, the last out is never guaranteed.
