Gametime:  4:07 pm EDT

Forecast:  70s and sunny

Starting PitchersBruce Zimmerman (L) vs Sean Manea (L)

Recent injury concerns to keep an eye on
   -- Freddy Galvis missed several days with a sore adductor muscle but was back in the lineup yesterday.   He did leave the game in the 8th inning but it was a blowout so probably shouldn't read too much into that
   -- Mikael Franco missed Friday night's game with a sore back though he was said to be available if needed.   He was back int he lineup yesterday.
   -- Matt Harvey took a line drive off his thumb on the last play of the first inning.   He stayed in the game and pitched 4.2 more innings but admitted there was some discomfort, and Hyde said it appeared to affect Harvey's breaking ball command for a couple innings.  Seeing how it feels today will be a key moving forward.
   -- DJ Stewart ran into the roof of the bullpen catching a foul pop yesterday, hitting his jaw/ear area very hard.   He waved off trainers and completed the game.

Yesterday we were proud of all 10 Orioles getting a hit each; today two Dodgers have all 14 of their RBI's.

Good luck Zimmerman - circle the wagons today.    Maybe some extra juju edge with OAK processing the very goofy Luzardo video game news this afternoon.
