The Orioles needed only 2 innings to get their swings in sync. Then it was lights out for Cardinals starter Pevos as the Orioles hammered away for 9 runs in the 3rd inning...8 before an out was made...this included a 3-run no-doubter home run by Oriole Shortstop Shawn Crockett...thankfully no passing cars were damaged as a result of the rocket during its reentry phase...The Orioles used 4 pitchers who each needed to get some work in and held the usually potent Cardinal bats to a single run...Will Bromley started for the O's and after a lead off single, he eased his way through the rest of the inning...He was followed by Chris Yates who pitched 2 strong innings and yielded the only Cardinal run on a bloop, opposite field single...newcomer Mike Newstead pitched the next 3 innings of shut out ball and Oriole skipper Sean Moran closed it out...final score Orioles 18 and the Cardinals 1.....
