O's starter Garrett Olson was handed a 2-0 lead, but allowed four runs in the bottom of the first to swing the momentum in Cleveland's favor...the O's commited four errors in the first four innings...
The Birds battled back, as usual, and eventually the game was knotted at five...Olson lasted six innings and took a no-decision.
Reliever Jim Johnson pitched a scoreless seventh but unraveled in the eighth, allowing two runs and leaving with the bases loaded and two outs...
Once again, the O's bats rallied but the bullpen couldn't hold on...seems like the same old story...
The Birds send Jeremy Guthrie to the mound later tonight...the bullpen must be elated...
Guthrie and Daniel Cabrera are the only two starters that seem capable of pitching deep at this point in the season, and Guthrie is the most reliable of the two...
The O's are now six games under .500 and are still dead last in the division...
