In the dugout ahead of Thursday night’s series finale against the Cleveland Guardians, Orioles manager Brandon Hyde gave credit to his players for reaching this point.
“Nobody thought we would be in this situation that we’re in right now,” Hyde said, and perhaps even he didn’t fully expect it in spring training, when he didn’t know how his pitching staff would piece together.
But in the proceeding hours, Hyde would watch right-hander Kyle Bradish stretch his scoreless innings streak to 15 as he paved the way for the Orioles to beat another division leader. Last week, it was eight scoreless frames against the Houston Astros.
