The Baltimore Orioles couldn’t hold onto a lead as the game went on and they lost to the Blue Jays by the score of 10-8 on Tuesday night.  It was very dissappointing to see the O’s lose this game as they scored seven runs off Shaun Marcum the Blue Jays starter.  Usually when you score that many runs off a starting pitcher you are going to win the game but this just wasn’t the case.

Garrett Olson only lasted 4 2/3 as he gave up nine hits and six runs.  Definately wasn’t the outing that Olson was hoping for as he was rocked.  As bad as Olson pitched, he still didn’t receive the lost.  Fernando Cabrera took the loss ass he gave up two runs in one inning of action.  Alberto Castillo and Dennis Sarfate both gave up one run in relief as well.

Nick Markakis and Melvin Mora both hit two run shots while Ramon Hernandez hit a solo home run. Mora also had a two run double and then a rbi single as he finished the game with five rbi.

The series is now tied at two games each with two more to play.  Orioles Blog
