Sunday afternoon Orioles game thread: vs Mets, 1:35 PM
Photo by Mitchell Layton/Getty ImagesAfter two fun games against the Mets this weekend, the Orioles close it out today looking for a sweep. They’ve got Kyle Bradish on the mound, who should give them a pretty good shot. Bradish has been the best pitcher in the rotation this year and has a 3.32 ERA in 20 starts. He’s coming off a seven-inning, three-run effort against the Blue Jays.
There is a little bit of weirdness in the lineup today as Jorge Mateo makes his first start in center field for the Orioles. He did play a touch at that position with the Padres back in 2020-21, so it’s not totally unprecedented. Mateo did play the final two innings in CF last night but did not have a play.
