G60 | of moonshots, patience and rain delays...

M's 6 | O's 3

I'm liking this continuing XBH theme...
Another 12 hits including 3 doubles, 1 triple and a homer.
And, even though only one came around to score, the 5 walks were good to see as well


And how 'bout that Garrett O?!?
He certainly struggled early vs. his old club but, amazingly came back out after the 27 minute rain delay and seemed to be rejuvenated! He only went 5, but kept 'em close so the BP could come in and do their thing.
"Olson came out a little too aggressive. He was amped up and couldn't find his command," manager Don Wakamatsu said. "After the rain delay, I saw a different pitcher. He came back out, battled and saved the bullpen."
oh btw...
~Russell's 450ft homer was supposedly the 6th longest ever at Oriole Park
~the M's have given up 3 runs or less in 9 straight games
~Adam Jones 0 for the series

Now, as their record finally reaches sea level the M's head for the mile high setting to begin their interleague stretch vs. the hot Rox....
