Corbin Burnes Pitches A Gem On Opening Day
9 months agoThe Baltimore Orioles' prized offseason acquisition and Opening Day starter Corbin Burnes tossed six innings of scoreless ball on Thursday, securing the win in an 11-3 victory over the Angels. The three-time All-Star struck out 11 batters and didn't allow a walk. The only blemish was a solo homer given up in the first inning to future Hall of Famer Mike Trout. Sometimes it plays out just the way you drew it up -- the O's get off on the right foot in their defense of last year's American League East division title, and Burnes rewards fantasy managers who spent a second-round pick on the 29-year-old with a masterful start to the season. Burnes' next start could come at home next Wednesday against the Royals.
