There was a whole lot of minor league baseball yesterday. All four teams were rained out on Friday, which meant four doubleheaders on Saturday. Yes, eight games. All games were seven innings.
Triple-A: Gwinnett Stripers (ATL) 6, Norfolk Tides 1 - Game 1
The Orioles will need a fifth starter next week, and Brandon Young could be the next man up. If that’s the case, yesterday was his last start before his promotion. It wasn’t a banner effort. The good news is he struck out six batters without a walk in five innings. But he also gave up five runs on six hits.
