Orioles finish twin bill in style with 4-2 win over Royals

Another strong start. And this time, a strong finish as well.

After the Orioles suffered a difficult loss in the first game of a doubleheader with Kansas City, during which they allowed an eighth-inning lead to slip away, they bounced back in the nightcap to take an early lead, never give it up, and then put the finishing touches on a 4-2 victory over the Royals.

Bruce Zimmermann started and was terrific. Anyone bracing for Zimmermann to come back down to earth after a strong start to the season will have to wait another five days.
