Orioles minor league recap 8/22: Drew Rom has a nice debut for Norfolk

Welcome to Norfolk, Drew Rom! The Tides got 4.2 strong innings from Rom in his Tides debut. The 2018 fourth-rounder kept the Bulls off the board until the fifth inning and struck out nine. Here’s the lefty Rom at work confounding hitters:

A four-run sixth inning for Norfolk reliever Pat Conroy put the Tides in a hole they couldn’t climb out of. Maybe the Tides were missing some punch at the plate with Kyle Stowers, Yusniel Díaz and Richie Martin all called up to Baltimore. They managed just six hits on Sunday (two of them by shortstop Cadyn Grenier), and zero RBI hits.
