The Baltimore Orioles were doubled up by the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday night. The O’s ended up losing the game by the score of 4-2. The O’s actually out hit the Rays 6-3 but were unable to make use of the extra hits.
Rocky Cherry took the loss after giving up a hit and two runs in one inning of action. Cherry had problems as he gave up three walks as well. Orioles starting pitcher Brian Bass tossed 4 2/3 innings and also gave up two runs.
Juan Castro walked to score the first O’s run when they had the bases loaded in the fifth inning. Brian Roberts then hit a sac fly for the Orioles second run. Not much offense as far as scoring runs for the Birds on Monday night.
Hopefully things will be better on Tuesday when the two teams face off once again.
