Orioles minor league recap 8/4: Joey Ortiz remains hot at the plate

Matt Harvey is still in the Orioles system, and he started in this one, but it did not go particularly well. Over 5.2 innings, the veteran righty allowed six runs on eight hits, including two home runs, four walks, and three strikeouts. His ERA with the Tides is up to 5.68. Kevin Smith struggled in relief as well, walking four and serving up a homer.

Norfolk only scored twice, but a couple of the notable names had nice days. GUNNAR HENDERSON went 2-for-5, and Kyle Stowers launched a two-run shot for his 18th homer of the season. Rylan Bannon added a double.
