As tonight’s game ended with the Orioles swarming Cedric Mullins in the infield, broadcaster Kevin Brown declared this the most ridiculous game of the season. He was not wrong. It was a back-and-forth affair that saw each of the first five Orioles pitchers give up runs. Every time the Orioles went ahead, the Rangers tied it. Then they went ahead. And the Orioles tied it. The Rangers went ahead again. The Orioles tied it again.
And finally, mercifully, Mullins got the RBI single in the 10th to seal an absolutely absurd 10-9 win.
By the time this game ended, it was easy to forget that Austin Voth had ever been in it.
