Baltimore Orioles Daily: Pitching thrives on the road as Birds sweep Mets

The Baltimore Orioles have struggled mightily on the road this year, but they looked like a different team in their two-game series at Citi Field. The Birds outscored the Mets 3-1 over the 18 innings, good enough for a pair of wins.

Coming off of back-to-back days off, the Birds pitching staff was clearly energized. Alex Cobb gave up the only run in the first game, while Dylan Bundy threw seven scoreless innings to set up the shutout in the second. The bullpen was anchored by Brad Brach and Richard Bleier, both of whom appeared in both games.
