After his call up from the alternate site in Bowie in late August, Baltimore Orioles outfielder Ryan Mountcastle was one of the best hitters in baseball.
The Baltimore Orioles rookie played in 35 games in his rookie season. He hit .333 with a .878 OPS, five home runs and 23 RBI, great numbers for a guy getting his first crack at MLB action.
