Not only did the Orioles beat the Yankees, but Nick Johnson finally got a hit and Brian Matusz was pitching for the O's. We can only hope that Matusz is back on the right track and this will continue. Back to back good starts from Matusz is certainly an encouraging sign. He went 6 1/3 today and I am thrilled with how he shut down the Yankee lineup.
The offense was paced by Chris Davis. Davis went 3 for 4 raising his average to .333. The first baseman also scored three runs and hit his 5th home run on the year. Chris Davis is off to an amazing smart and is making the Koji trade look better by the day.
Nick Markakis was 2 for 5 and appears to be breaking out of his slump. If we can get Markakis going this is going to be a fantastic season.
Robert Andino was 1 for 2 and is still hitting over .300. Andino's average sits at .316. He also walked twice and scored a run. Once again, the guy is a gamer. Do you remember how we got Andino? Hayden Penn ring a bell? If it doesn't check out the picture on the left. This is looking like one of the best trades in recent club history. If not the best trade in recent history.
O'Day and Ayala were amazing again in relief. Neither reliever gave up a run. I sure am liking this bullpen other than Gregg. It sure is nice to see Orioles 7, Yankees 1 after the game. Maybe the O's can do this again tomorrow night.
