What a memorable Wednesday night of Orioles baseball. Coming in a matchup that looked ugly on paper, it was even sweeter. On Tuesday night, Orioles hitters were one-hit by Cleveland and on Wednesday, they had to face the AL’s third-lowest WHIP in Triston McKenzie, plus a Guardians bullpen that had allowed no runs in 30 1/3 consecutive innings.
Sometimes, even when it makes no sense, you win. The Orioles didn’t do much against Cleveland pitching tonight, but they did two things very well: one, see a ton of pitches, and two, call up Gunnar Henderson. I’m kidding, but also not.
