Granted we thought that the Baltimore Orioles had busted out their bats on Sunday in Chicago, and with Manny Machado‘s lead off homer there was no reason to doubt that. However in a classic case of double-entendre, the Birds continued to hit-for-power last night but still saw their bats go to sleep once again. Wei-Yin Chen got the start in the twin cities, and while he gave up a couple of deep shots he also shut Minnesota down in similar fashion. Chen’s line: 7 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 3 BB, 5 K.
Baltimore Orioles and Manny Machado fall in 10
