"They didn't even let me breathe out there," Gonzalez said. "It was tough. They were swinging at that first pitch. The positive side is that I didn't walk anyone, and physically I feel fine. I'm ready to go.
"It was just a tough one to think about. Obviously, the results weren't there. The fastball was up. I'm happy with my fastball and split. Other than that, I'm feeling good."
Six Orioles relievers combined to allow three earned runs over 6 2/3 innings. Brad Brach, Jason Garcia and Hunter Harvey each contributed an inning of scoreless relief.
