HOUSTON — Former New Mexico State Aggie Kyle Bradish pitched a gem, throwing eight strong innings before two relievers completed the four-hitter to lead the Baltimore Orioles to a 2-0 win over the Houston Astros on Friday night.
“He had a great slider tonight… (and got) a lot of bad swings on it against a really, really good club,” manager Brandon Hyde said. “What an impressive performance, going eight shutout on the road against the Houston Astros — pretty special.”
Rookie Bradish (2-5) limited Houston’s powerful offense to just a pair of singles and struck out six in the longest outing of his career to get his second win — first since May 10 against St.
