Baltimore Orioles: Grayson Rodriguez Hurls A Gem In His First Start

Two games into the minor league season, two noteworthy pitching performances from Baltimore Orioles pitching prospects. The Delmarva Shorebirds (A-Low) are opening the 2019 season in Lexington, Kentucky with a four-game series against the Legends. Friday night’s game saw the teams begin the Copa de la Diversión as Los Gallos (Roosters) de Delmarva and the Lexington Leyendas (Legends).

Friday’s game also marked the season debut of RHP Grayson Rodriguez. Rodriguez, the Baltimore Orioles #5 prospect per MLB Pipeline, made that debut a memorable one.
