Bud Norris wasn't bad and the Orioles offense grabbed seven runs even though they went only 3-16 with RISP. Good enough is good enough! They beat the Indians, 7-3, to take the series win.
When a starting pitcher comes into a game sporting a 9.88 ERA, they don't have to do a great job to seem impressive. I think Albert Einstein came up with that theory. Whatever its origin, it worked in Bud Norris' favor on Sunday afternoon. The other thing working in Norris' favor was the Orioles offense, which for one day at least remembered how to get hits, walks, and score runs.
