NOTES

BY JON MEOLI

baltimore — A year ago, assigning the Baltimore Orioles’ bullpen five innings wouldn’t have been a winning recipe for Manager Brandon Hyde. Friday’s 6-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays showed that’s not as difficult a proposition for him and the Orioles to face. The visiting Rays had several long innings against Orioles starter Alex Cobb, who allowed two runs in four innings before handing the ball to the bullpen with a 3-2 lead. That lead disappeared on a home run by Brandon Lowe o n Paul Fry’s second pitch. But the Orioles grabbed the lead right back on a single by Anthony Santander in the fifth and never looked back. Fry got a key double play in the sixth inning before passing things off to Shawn Armstrong, who struck out a pair before bequeathing a runner on second base to left-hander Tanner Scott. Scott, too, started inauspiciously when he hit Lowe with a pitch. No matter. He struck out the next two batters to keep the Orioles’ narrow lead, and by the time Mychal Givens came on for the eighth, the Orioles had given themselves a two-run cushion. Givens worked around a walk in a scoreless eighth inning before Cole Sulser, one night after serving up a three-run home run to Aaron Judge that cost the Orioles against the Yankees, struck out two in a 1-2-3 ninth. With expanded rosters giving the Orioles more bullpen options, Hyde has been able to deploy them in better spots than previous years. The results have been better, at least since Opening Day. — Baltimore Sun
