Eaton ruffed up

The Birds starter eaton was whacked allowing 7 runs 4.2 Bass a scorelss 2.1 and SHerill a scorless inning so bullpen was good the starter was not. One key was BRob gping 0-2 when he could have got 3 RBIs and tied the game his final 2 ABs but he did slug a long ball his 6th Markakis got his 7th slam both solos as theere would be no accomponiment on the bases. Wigginton nailed a double down the line on the O's first pich hit of the year scoring 2 but that's all the O's would get as they put up 4 and lost by3. Jaba got a line drive in the thigh and left afyter .2 inning but he would get the out but Mora would be retired with 2 on. Cano hit a 2 runblast and Matsui a solo and the Yanks strung together 3 doubkles to start the gamne and a dourth double later that inning to score 2 more so Eaton ruffed up and maybe out of the roation all together. O's next visuit Washington for interleague play with the pitchers swingin bats and the O's desperate for Ws. United also plays saturday on Cpopmcats sportsnet so i may wathc that since the BIrds are intersetin to watch but right now taril in a tugh dicvision and the toughest in the majors especially with Toroonto havinga breakpout year.
