It should have been so easy for the Orioles. Matt Harvey continued his second half renaissance by extending his scoreless innings streak to 18.1 innings, a new career high. Then, the bullpen happened. Specifically, Tanner Scott happened. Things got dicey, but it worked out in the end and the O’s held on for a 4-3 win over the Tigers to even the Detroit series at a game apiece.
Harvey has really been something else since the All-Star break. He followed up two straight scoreless outings of six innings apiece with tonight’s performance where he added another 6.1 without giving up a run.
