O's can't avoid the sweep of Tigers!

The series between the Baltimore Orioles & Detroit Tigers involved a lot of run scoring on both sides but more falling in the Tigers corner. Game 3 was a little different though with the Tigers winning 4-2 in a game which Brad Bergesen allows 4 runs in 6 innings of work but the O's could only get 7 hits with two coming off the bat Adam Jones. Matt Wieters accounted for the 1 rbi with a sac fly in the 9th.

The O's will kick of a 4 game series against the Texas Rangers in Texas tonight. The O's hand the ball to Jeremy Guthrie while Tommy Hunter will get the ball for the Rangers.

O's lose on walk-off bomb of Damon's bat!

The O's got solid pitching from the youngster Jake Arrieta but that was not enough as the bullpen gave up a 4-1 lead than a 5-3 lead which lead to extra innings. In the bottom of the 11th Johnny Damon smashed a 2 run bomb off of David Hernandez to lead the Detroit Tigers to victory.

The O's were lead at the plate by Nick Markakis who went 3 for 6 while driving in 3 runs and hitting his 5th home-run of the season. Matt Wieters added a double and a triple while Felix Pie, Julio Lugo, Miguel Tejada and Ty Wigginton each had at least 2 hits a piece. Arrieta went 6.1 innings allowing 1 earned run while striking out 4 in the no decision.

Baltimore will look to bounce back tomorrow against Max Scherzer. The O's will try to avoid the sweep before heading to Texas for a 4 game series starting Thursday. The O's put the ball in Brad Bergesen's hand with the hopes of avoiding the sweep.

O's give ball to Arrieta today against Tigers!

The Baltimore Orioles skipper Juan Samuel and the bullpen are hoping Jake Arrieta can cool off the Detroit Tigers bats after a run scoring derby in game one. Which lead to 1 inning pitched for Kevin Millwood and less than 2 innings pitched for Andrew Oliver the starter for the Tigers.

The O's were lead by Jake Fox who went 3 for 5 with 1 home-run and 2 rbi's and Julio Lugo who was 3 for 4 with a rbi triple. Matt Wieters also had a pair of hits and 2 rbi's.
