Charlie Morton Triumphant in His Return to the Rotation
Charlie Morton had his best start of the season on Monday night against the Cardinals, going six innings and allowing just two runs on four hits and two walks while collecting five strikeouts. It was his first start since early May after moving to the bullpen after a disastrous stretch early in the season. In his first five starts, he went 0-5 with a 10.89 ERA and 6.50 FIP, but he seemed to find his rhythm while working in relief. He had allowed just two earned runs in his last two long relief outings and continued that success Monday by holding the Cardinals in check to earn his first win with the Orioles. The 41-year-old veteran will look to build on this momentum in his next start, which is a more favorable matchup on Sunday against the White Sox.
