The Baltimore Orioles have ended up taking it on the chin in games two and three of spring training. In this afternoon’s game in Port Charlotte, FL against Tampa, Miguel Gonzalez got the start and was unable to make it out of the second inning. Gonzalez’s line: 1.1 IP, 8 H, 7 R, 0 BB, 0 K.
It begins and ends with starting pitching, as I’ve said many times. The O’s were unable to get starting pitching that sufficed this afternoon. However keep in mind that often times in these spring games pitchers are
working exclusively on one pitch or even on location.
