First and foremost, I want to officially welcome Matt Wieters of the Baltimore Orioles to “the 30’s.” I know that when I turned 30 I took some solace in the fact that it seems that all ages are now younger than they used to be. Having said that, I suspect that Wieters’ 30th birthday yesterday is going to go down as a lot more special and a lot more memorable than did mine.
The O’s got a very solid start out of Kevin Gausman last night. Gausman’s line: 6.2 IP, 8 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 6 K.
