Manager Buck Showalter's declaration that Dylan Bundy was the type of pitcher he'd select for “that situation” applied to many facets of the Orioles' 9-3 rout of the host Chicago White Sox on Thursday.
Start with the fact that Bundy, 25, entered the game with three quality starts for a 0.70 ERA in four day games this season. Then mix in the fact that his ability to turn a lineup over multiple times can save a bullpen when he's pitching well. And if it wasn’t enough that the Orioles badly needed a win to avoid losing a series to the only club that entered this week with a worse record than their own, there was how calm Bundy was when it finally started to go their way.
