The Orioles found a gem in starting pitcher John Means

It was the third game of the season and the Orioles were leading the Yankees 4-0, but trouble was brewing in the fourth inning when Dylan Bundy loaded the bases with two out, prompting manager Brandon Hyde to bring in a left-handed pitcher out of the pen.

The lefty gave up a walk and a single, narrowing the gap to 4-3, but he struck out Giancarlo Stanton with runners on the corners to end the threat. He struck out four more over the next three innings, keeping the powerful Yankee lineup at bay in what became a 7-5 Orioles win.
