Capuano On Mets Yankees

Baseball Betting Lines

"It's nice to win a ballgame," Carpenter said. "Fortunately I pitched well enough and we got some really nice hits, some key hits, and then late in the game broke it open. It was nice."

 

The win was Carpenter's first since may 10, snapping a five-decision losing streak.

 

He has faced the Orioles 15 times (14 starts) and is 7-4 against them with a 5.10 ERA.

 

Kyle Lohse (8-4) worked five innings to pick up the win, yielding four hits while fanning two and walking one. He didn't pitch after a 27-minute rain delay.

 

J.J. Hardy smacked a solo home run and Nick Markakis chipped in a pair of hits for the Orioles, who have lost four of their last six games and six of 10.

 

"It was more of a case of us not doing anything offensively," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said of his starter's performance. "It's a process for him, he's doing some things real well and there's some things he'll do better at as he goes forward."

•    The idea of walking to school in the rain makes me want to curl up in bed and just go back to sleep.

•    Still no wickets for The Haus or Spearhead Siddle in this innings. Expecting 2 hattricks to wrap this badboy up tonight based on series form

•    The high is amazing until reality hits

•    Scratchy Laxman playing his last innings in Australia. Dropped by Ponting. Hopefully century awaits. #destiny
