112K / 29BB, 21HR

QS: 9

Last 5 starts (29.2 IP): (2-3) 3.65 (1.32), 6HR

</b>

Gausman has been pitching better lately though his WHIP isn't getting any better and he's giving up too many home runs generally (21 in 20 starts) and lately. He has given up at least one home run in 9 of his last 11 starts. Of course, he's never faced the Giants before and is 0-8 on the road this season.

Madison Bumgarner

(10-7)

2.20 (1.00/.206)

181K / 40BB, 18HR

QS: 18

Bumgarner has an astounding 18 sub-4/6+ starts this season and is one of the few true aces in the game today. His April ERA (3.64) is his worst month and finished May (1.05) and July (1.75) with ERA's under two, but had a 2.34 in June and a 3.46 in two August starts. He has thrown four complete games and is averaging nearly seven innings a start. What's worse is as good as his numbers are, they are even better at home. Not much more to say about Bumgarner except he's really, really good. I think he is easily the best pitcher we've faced all year.

Mark Trumbo (17 AB) .235, 3B, HR, 2RBI

Pedro Alvarez 0/2, 2K

Bundy struggled and could not get through the sixth, but Cain didn't have it and gave up five runs and learned the hard way that you can't pitch in the middle of the plate to this team. The Giants made it interesting in the ninth as Brach continues to struggle which could put more work on Britton's shoulders going forward, but the Orioles hang on for the win. Now comes the harder part.

It's not hard to determine who the better pitcher is in this matchup. Bumgarner has been consistently good all season long for the Giants and though Gausman has been pitching well lately, it's probably not wise to pick against Bumgarner in his home park. Stranger things have happened though.

The Dodgers lost, so the Giants hold on to first place and Toronto's loss means the Orioles are now in first again by a half game as Houston continues to play well. They have won four in a row and Seattle lost to Oakland to snap their winning streak. The Tigers lost to Texas for their fifth loss in a row and the Yankees have won three in a row sitting 3.5 back of the WC. Not much has changed with the WC yet.

    • Westburg shouldn’t be, where are you seeing that?
    • So since Westburg is apparently still ROY eligible, Cowser and Westburg may project to be the best rookie combination since Fred Lynn and Jim Rice in 1975?  
    • There were several and I was one them. I'm  on record as saying I was one of his biggest Apologists . You should feel good about yourself as you were able to see that Means would be imploding before our very eyes( which was an opinion or a guess, which is what I did) as far as feeling bad for me? Dont I'm plenty good enough to know I wont be able to guess right every time 
    • Fantastic pickup by Elias and big kudos to O’Hearn for taking advantage of the resources to improve. He’s a great story. 
    • Given his injury history and what’s happening right now, Means may make more money as an Oriole next year than as a free agent. He may have to settle for league minimum as a FA but would do better than that in arbitration. Heck, unless he’s effective at least a little this year then the orioles might release him after the season to avoid paying more than league minimum. I hope Means recovers, very much so, but this scenario is possible imo.    ps. I guess I ignored the part where you said if Means thinks he is healthy. 
    • What I'd like to see in the next game Holliday plays, is for him to keep his eyes following through on the ball when he swings. In the last game I saw, he was yanking his head off the zone when he swung and couldn't see the bat to the ball. He was missing wildly and it wasn't even competitive. So, keep your eye on the ball! Follow all the way through! If your swing is so violent that it's yanking your head off the sight of the ball, then adjust your mechanics because you can't hit what you can't see!
    • What a great example of pedantic! Please tell us you meant to do that. I honestly can’t tell these days.
