The Baltimore Orioles got dazzling defensive plays from Adam Jones and Joey Rickard last night to help them defeat Toronto 4-3 in extra innings. Defense wins championships, and there’s nary a team out there who’s been able to touch the Orioles’ defense this year. Whether it’s fundamentals or amazing plays, this unit is as solid as they come.
Ubaldo Jimenez had his struggles last night, but he pitched five innings and left the team in a position to win. Jimenez’s line: 5 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 4 BB, 6 K.
