The Baltimore Orioles turned Mike Baumann into a full-time reliever this season, and he has been incredible out of the bullpen. Host Connor Newcomb dives into the changes Baumann has made and looked at how the differences in his fastball and curveball have allowed him to post a 0.64 ERA so far in 2023.
But first, Connor recaps the Orioles 8-6 loss to the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night and gives you the five things you need to know from the game, including Kyle Bradish's horrid start, the Orioles big ninth-inning comeback attempt, and Gunnar Henderson getting back on track at the plate.
Finally, gives you some Orioles minor league updates on Dillon Tate, Jackson Holliday, Jordan Westburg, and others.
