On the balance of this season, days when Dylan Bundy has been as good as he was Wednesday far outnumber the bad ones.
The same cannot be said for the offense — especially when he pitches like this. Yet on a sleepy Wednesday afternoon in Queens, they scratched together a run that was more than enough to separate their own floundering offense from that of the host Mets in a 1-0 win at City Field.
Bundy had just pitched out of his only jam of the game — a bases-loaded situation created by a two-out double, an intentional walk, and an unintentional one — with his fifth strikeout of the day when the Orioles (19-41) broke the deadlock he and Mets starter Zach Wheeler produced.
