As the final score indicates, it wasn’t exactly a great night for the Orioles in Tampa Bay. In fact, statistically speaking, it was one of the worst games of the season for Buck Showalter’s group. Below, the details of a tough AL East loss for the Birds.
The recap
Whatever rhythm Ubaldo Jimenez found in last weekend’s start against the Cardinals was not evident on this night to say the least. Early on, the trouble with control reared its ugly head and quickly turned this game into a disappointment for the Orioles.
