Garrett Olson has pitched okay this year, better than might have been expected, given how heavily the team has relied on him.
Kyle Davies has given up 8 earned runs over his last 7-2/3 innings, after some good starts following his recall from AAA Ottawa Omaha (remember Ottawa?).
The Orioles (43-40) have won 17 of their last 20 games against the Royals (38-47), including a 9-1 record at home while hitting .319 with 12 homers and 61 runs. Baltimore’s lone loss in that span came in Monday’s 6-5, 11-inning defeat, which opened the four-game series.
I'd say more, but there's a guy being arrested across the street, and I'm going to go watch. -zk
