In the final six starts of his first major-league season, Orioles starter Wei-Yin Chen weathered a series of difficult outings. The Yankees beat him twice in September, hanging seven runs on him Sept. 7. Chen lost his final four decisions of the season.

Chen stands between the Yankees going for a sweep in Game 3 and the Orioles evening things.
