As bad as the Orioles pitching staff has been at times this season, consider this frightening thought: There are worse pitchers waiting in Norfolk. Here, Luis Ysla gave up six runs in 3.2 innings, and in relief, Pedro Araujo allowed four runs in 3.1 innings. That is not great.
Tides batters were also not great, picking up just six hits. Despite 0-5 hitting with runners in scoring position, they still plated four runs - not an embarrassing showing, but not enough to make a game of it. Cedric Mullins was 1-3 with a walk and stole two bases.
