The host Baltimore Orioles pounded away at Phillies pitching for a 19-3 blowout at Camden Yards in what fans of the local nine have to hope is the proverbial “rock bottom” to this season of desolation.
Let’s try to break this down for you as simply as possible. Phillies starter Jerome Williams was torched for 6 earned runs on 4 hits and 2 walks in just 2/3 of an inning before he had to leave after suffering an injury while covering the plate.
Williams was followed to the mound by Dustin McGowan, who may have been even worse.
