Welcome to Overreaction Of The Week, my over the top, uninhibited, Baltimore sports-fan takes on this week’s Orioles activity.
What Happened?
On May 12th, David Hess made his major league debut in a start against the Tampa Bay Rays. He struggled early, giving up a three-run home run in the first inning, but settled down to turn in a quality start over six innings. Hess was a welcome addition to the starting rotation that has had its ups and downs so far in 2018. As the 26th man in the first game of a double header, Hess showed his ability to mix pitches and battle a big league lineup, but has since been sent back down to Norfolk.
