Baltimore OriolesvsDetroit Tigers
BAL 0/DET 14
Things to say
Detroit shut out Baltimore 14-0 at Comerica Park.
01
opener
Tigers absolutely buried the Orioles, 14-0. It was over by the middle innings. Baltimore never had a pulse.
02
key player
Detroit's starter was filthy, cruised into the seventh and never got touched. When your guy carries a zero that deep, the lineup just piles on.
03
hot take
Fourteen to nothing and Baltimore's still a game up in the standings? That tells you the O's are living dangerously.
04
deep cut
The scary part is Detroit did it without their bullpen even being tested. They just handed off a blowout in garbage time.
05
exit
Anyway, real question is whether the O's bounce back or let this thing snowball into the next series.
The recap
Detroit hung a 14-spot on Baltimore and never let them breathe — this one was a laugher by the middle innings. The Tigers' bats worked over the Orioles staff early, and once they broke it open the manager could empty the bench and cruise.
Meanwhile Baltimore got shut out cold, blanked across nine with nothing doing at the plate. Getaway day, get out of town — a clean sheet for Detroit and a game the O's will want to forget.
