Chris Tillman

(16-6)

3.72 (1.24/.237)

136K / 60BB, 19HR

QS: 14

</b>

Tillman has a 3.09 (0.86) since coming off the DL, but really hasn't been the same pitcher he was before the injury though still effective so far. His velocity was down in the 90-91 range most of the game against TB where he allowed three runs in 5.2 IP. His numbers are quite high at home this season after starting out strong, but has very good numbers against Boston for his career.

David Price

(16-8)

3.91 (1.18/.253)

217K / 44BB, 25HR

QS: 21

Price put up a 2.80 in July, a 2.93 in August and a 3.54 so far in September following his last start allowing five runs on nine hits in six innings to the Yankees. That snapped his seven game winning streak and was the worst start of his since back in July. In his last three starts against the Orioles, Price has a 2.45 (0.50) with 24 strikeouts and no walks in 22 innings. He allowed five home runs though which account for all of the runs allowed. Price is 5-0 in nine starts at Camden Yards.

Both Jimenez and Buchholz pitched well and the only run through five innings was due to a throwing error by Sandy Leon on a sacrifice bunt where he threw to second instead of first and got no one. The subsequent walk led to a bases loaded sac fly from Jones. Jimenez pitched out of two pretty huge jams in the first and third inning and left a jam in the sixth to Brach who ended up loading the bases with one out thanks to a bad play by Weiters. He struck out Bradley Jr. after going 3-0 on him and got Leon to hit a ground ball to Davis, but he threw it away allowing two runs to score. The very first pitch to the next batter Benintendi got up over the scoreboard for a three run homer to bust the game open and it was really hard to see. I don't know what Davis was thinking throwing it so hard to Brach, but not only was it a bad throw but Brach could have hurt himself trying to extend enough to catch it. Fortunately, that didn't happen. Brach is the one that let the game get out of hand by allowing the homer to Benintendi.

What's worse is what does the Orioles offense do in the bottom of the sixth? Davis tries to hit a solo shot and flies out to center, Trumbo tries to hit a solo shot and flies out to center and Alvarez grounds out weakly to second base. There was no attempt made to start a rally. The only attempt made was to hit home runs with no one on base and it has been the achilles heel of this offense for most of the second half of the season. The Orioles are 0-5 against the Red Sox at Camden Yards since the AS break.

Tillman and Price should be a good one. It will be interesting to see if Tillman's consistent 94-95 returns on the fastball in his third start back from the DL. Price is always tough on the Orioles and is undefeated at Camden Yards. Can Chris be the stopper again?

The Yankees (barring a six run ninth for the Rays), M's and Astros win today as the race is now tighter than it's been all season long. Houston is a game back, Seattle two back and the Yankees still hanging around at 2.5 back. The DET/MIN game is in a rain delay in the third inning with no score. If they win, they will be a half game back of the Orioles for the second WC.

Wild Card Standings

*Toronto +1.0

NY Yankees -2.5
