Orioles thoughts and observations on the series win in Toronto

After the Orioles’ 13-9 win over the Blue Jays – a victory that gave the O’s a series win here in Toronto – manager Buck Showalter said the hero of the weekend wasn’t even on the big league roster anymore.

Showalter pointed to the 5 2/3 long relief innings rookie right-hander Tyler Wilson gave the club in Friday’s 5-4 loss to the Blue Jays. Right-hander Mike Wright lasted just 1 1/3 innings, and the Orioles didn't win that night, but Wilson not only kept the Orioles in the game, he also preserved a bullpen that would be needed later in the series.
