RHP Christian Binford Allows One Run Over Six Innings in Baysox Debut

 

BOWIE, Md. – RHP Christian Binford allowed just one run over six innings of work in his Baysox debut and Bowie (2-2) held on for a 6-4 win over the Harrisburg Senators (2-2) in the series finale on Sunday afternoon at Prince George’s Stadium in Bowie.

 

Harrisburg plated three runs in the ninth on Osvaldo Abreu’s RBI single and a two-run single from Rafael Bautista to cut the lead to 6-4, but LHP Luis Gonzalez (0.2 IP, 2 H, 2 K) fanned Jacob Wilson with the bases loaded to end the game and notch his first save of the year.

 

All three runs in the ninth were charged to RHP Ryan Meisinger (0.1 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 3 ER, BB).

 

Binford (1-0) gave up the one run on five hits to go along with a walk and five strikeouts in 6.0 IP.

 

The Baysox plated four runs on two hits in the second to open up a 4-0 lead as Adrian Marin and Erick Salcedo drew bases-loaded walks, while Cedric Mullins and Corban Joseph each picked up an RBI fielder’s choice in the inning.

 

Harrisburg got a run back in the third with Abreu’s solo shot off of Binford to cut the lead to 4-1.

 

In the home half of the fourth, Martin Cervenka singled to start the inning, took second on a groundout, went to third on Salcedo’s bunt single and scored on Joseph’s two-out RBI single to stretch the Bowie lead to 5-1.

 

Cervenka is 7-13 (.538) over his first three games of the season with two doubles, three RBI and five runs scored.

 

Senators starter Luis Reyes (0-1) was dealt the loss in his Double-A debut after allowing five runs on six hits to go along with four walks and four strikeouts in 4.0 IP.

 

Mullins’ solo shot in the sixth extended the Baysox lead to 6-1. The home run was Mullins’ first of the season.

 

Cervenka (2-4, 2 R), Joseph (2-4, 2 RBI) and Ademar Rifaela (3-4, 2B, R) all had multi-hit games for Bowie, while LHP Paul Fry (2.0 IP, 4 K) had a scoreless outing in relief.

    • Publix sells a brand in the frozen section.
    • Wet Leg has won three Grammys! Pixies considered mainstream now? I'm an Iron Maiden fan from way back. Singer/Songwriter folk artists like Bob Dylan, Suzanne Vega and Tracy Chapman. It's just finding stuff on the periphery is more rewarding.
    • Poke via Uber is a bold move. Cheers, sir.
    • What mainstream music do you like? Or is a never ending attempt at being a hipster? Like, you can admit you like some Led Zeppelin or Motley Crue’s first two. 
    • Farewell to Ryan McKenna, claimed on waivers by the Giants after being DFA'd the other day. We all have followed his career since his great 2018 season at Frederick. Ryan Mountcastle,  Cedric Mullins, and Nick Vespi are now the three remaining members of the Orioles 2015 draft class still in the organization.
    • I can see Adley aging on the Posey curve. He probably has until age 35 before he will hang up the spikes/be a negative valued baseball player. IMO Adley's defense is average, he has a below average throwing arm. But his bat is excellent. And there is no arguing that his presence has made a tremendous impact since the very first day that he stepped onto a Major League field for the O's. Gunnar may not extend because of Boras and the same may turn out to be the case for Holliday. But that should not preclude us from locking up the other guys who prove to be special. Right now Adley is that IMO and Westburg appears to be working his way toward that. But even if we do not extend our own guys, we should bring in others who will sign and impact winning in a positive manner.  Again IMO, not spending and cutting cost is not the way to go for franchise viability/growth. Customers/fans are more informed than ever and have more entertainment options than ever. Your message to them cannot be come out to see the Orioles just because we are the Orioles or "Hey we will probably win more than we lose (like the Rays) but won't make any real efforts to seize opportunities (by spending) when they are there." San Diego doesn't have a problem with fan engagement/attendance even though they don't/haven't won big because they have captured the attention of that market and become relevant by signing star players. And showing their fanbase that they are invested. I am not saying that I want to be like the Padres, but I certainly want the O's to be/remain relevant in this market (like they are now). Every time I take my kids to games, they are excited to go (in particular my youngest). That is how you capture the next generation of O's fans - by being relevant. 3 years ago I couldn't get my kids to go to an Orioles game no matter what! Conversely, I have never had that issue with the Ravens. They've always wanted to attend their games (even practices/training camp).
    • I see Toronto has lost the first two to Tampa for a 3-game losing streak after John Schneider's emotional proclamation of a "big win for May 14th" Monday night. They were up 4-0 with Gausman heading into the 6th today, but....nope.
