Good morning, Camden Chatters.
The Mountain is back.
Yesterday’s exhibition tie against the Red Sox brought a long-awaited moment for Orioles fans: the return of Félix Bautista to a major league mound for the first time in 19 months.
Just seeing a healthy Bautista back in action a year and the half after he underwent Tommy John surgery would have been special enough, regardless of the results. But for good measure, the results were superb. Bautista mowed down all three batters he faced, striking out the first two and inducing a weak groundout from the third.
