O's Rally Falls Just Short

The Orioles lost a close game last night, falling 3-2 to the Milwaukee Brewers.

Daniel Cabrera had a good night on the mound, going six innings and allowing three runs off seven hits. He walked three and struck out eight.

The O's couldn't get anything going offensively until Oscar Salazar pinch-hit for Cabrera in the seventh...Salazar swatted a two-run shot to narrow the Brewers' lead to one. That was it for the offense; Melvin Mora had a pinch-hit double in the ninth with two out, but Jay Payton popped-out to end the game.

The O's look to win the series later this afternoon...if they can snap their ten game Sunday losing streak I'll be back after the game...
