Stroshow Starts the Game with a One, Two, Three Inning
All the questions about Marcus Stroman being the guy to start this game were quickly silenced when he confidently shuts down the first three batters of the ball game.
The Orioles batting lineup is relentless in their attack, but their top three are especially scary. I held my breath with every pitch, praying to the baseball gods that he gets through Adam Jones, then Hyun-soo Kim, then Manny Machado. Oh God, please!
The Strowshow had a no-hitter going into the top of the fourth before Adam Jones led off with a poke to right field, which eventually led to a two-run blast from Mark Trumbo. Besides that mistake to Trumbo, the kid was great and went six innings.
