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.

In a very suprising game, the Baltimore Orioles crushed the visiting Boston Red Sox by the score of 11-5. With the six run victory, the Orioles avoided the three game sweep at home which you never want to see happen. Atleast the O’s gave their fans a little something to cheer about on Wednesday night.

Radhames Liz pitched six innings and gave up seven hits and three runs.  Liz was taken deep twice in the game but other then that he pitched a pretty good game in my opinion.  Liz improved to 3-0 on the season as he picked up the win for the Orioles.  Adam Loewen tossed two innings of relief when Liz left the game and he did a pretty good job as well.  Loewen only gave up two hits and a walk in his two innings of action.  Dennis Sarfate started the ninth inning but after letting two runners on base, the Orioles brought in George Sherrill got the second out of the inning and then gave up a single and two runs to scored.  Sherrill was then able to strike out Alex Gordon to end the game.

The Orioles bullpen did run into some trouble however.  Jim Johnson allowed one run and then George Sherrill had the bases loaded with zero outs in the ninth inning but then got the next three batters to strikeout.  Sherrill struggled a little bit as he was brought into the game in th eighth inning and had to get the final four outs of the game.  He was able to lock down how record his 26th save however.
