Baltimore Orioles Veteran Smashes Expectations In Season Debut
John Means was dominant in his season debut for the Baltimore Orioles.
With the Baltimore Orioles locked in a tug-of-war with the New York Yankees for first place in the AL East, the Orioles could use all the help they can get if they want to repeat as division champs this year.
Fortunately, Baltimore received some reinforcements on Saturday in the form of John Means. The former All-Star made his season debut against the Cincinnati Reds, returning to the rotation after missing the start of the year with a forearm injury.
With fellow starter Grayson Rodriguez landing on the injured list with shoulder inflammation, the Orioles need Means to pick up the slack in his absence. He proved up to the challenge in his first start in over seven months, dominating the Reds over seven shutout innings at Great American Ball Park.
