The Baltimore Orioles were routed by the Cincinnati Reds 24-2 on Sunday in a game in which Baltimore utilized two different position players on the mound. Speaking to reporters after the game, Orioles manager Brandon Hyde didn't mince words while assessing the blowout loss.
"Not at that point," Hyde said when asked if he had a feeling he'd end up using position players as pitchers after removing struggling starter Charlie Morton in the third inning. "It was 6-1. I'm hoping that [Cody] Poteet could give us three-to-four innings. If that's the case and we're in the game, I had a few guys that I would use.
