When Liz took the mound every one in attendance was hoping he could come back from some bad starts and he certainly pitched well enough to win giving up 3 in 5 2/3 and he did get the victory behind a potent offense that put up 8 runs while hitting two round trippers one early 2 run shot from Adam Jones that put the Birds up for good and one late from Ramon Hernandez his 10th that put them up big. The bullpen pitched very well with Sarfate getting out of a bases loaded jam gettin Rios to fly out. Then Bradford Johnson and Bierd all picked up scorless innings in a great game from the pen. Now the O's will need that same type of Big O tonight as they send Garrett Olson to the mound a young lefty hoping to pitch well and stay in the rotation. Kevin Millar is really due expect him to hit one out any time now and get Huff and Mora aND Scott to go deep and get back to hitting the big fly. Olson needs to be on top of his game and the bats need to stay swinging hard towards the fences. Tune in tonight for game 2 vs Toronto and hopefully another much needed O's victory. GO O's!!!
