Since Adley Rutschman’s major league debut, it has felt like as he goes, so go the Orioles. That felt more true than ever today, as Rutschman returned from a month-plus stint on the IL and led the Orioles to victory with a three-hit game.
Of course, he did have a little help from his friends. Six Orioles had multi-hit games, four hit home runs, and the offense just kept pounding the Blue Jays’ pitchers. The hitters overcame shaky starting pitching from Zach Eflin to give the Orioles an 11-4 win in the first game of a four-game series.
