BALTIMORE -- After Tuesday's fourth blown save by Tony Watson, manager Clint Hurdle announced that he was sticking with his closer in the ninth. But, after Watson surrendered a game-tying homer to Trey Mancini in Wednesday's eventual 9-6 extra-innings loss to the Orioles at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, Hurdle may be reconsidering.
"[Giving Watson a brief blow is] something that we talked about earlier, and I think we will have an opportunity to discuss some things on the way back tomorrow," Hurdle said. "We have to reassess who is available tomorrow as well, so that'll be a thought.
