The Baltimore Orioles have had some trouble “putting it all together” thus far in spring training. However we saw a flash of that in this afternoon’s 9-3 victory over Pittsburgh in Sarasota. Kevin Gausman looked incredibly sharp, although his numbers might indicate otherwise. Gausman’s line: 4 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 1 BB, 3 K.
Gausman pitched three good innings and then in the fourth he started mixing in some breaking balls – again, sometimes these games are about working on specific pitches. He gave up a two-run homer to McCutchen, and a sac fly-RBI to Figueroa in the fourth.
