The Orioles lost on Saturday night, and even worse, they might have lost their closer for a little while if things go an unlucky direction.
In the ninth inning with the game still tied at 7-7, Zach Britton went to field a swinging bunt off the bat of Adam Eaton. The roller went just past the mound and Britton tried to glove and flip to first base in time to retire Eaton. He came up limping after the play and left the game without trying to throw any pitches to test his strength.
As things worked out, Eaton proved to be the winning run for the White Sox in an 8-7 Orioles loss, with Vance Worley replacing Britton and allowing the inherited runner to score, although he struck out Carlos Sanchez and the umpire didn't call it, but that's another story.
