The Birds backed rookie starter David Hernandez (2-2) early...Luke Scott hit a 2-run double in the first inning, and Aubrey Huff launched a 3-run shot in the third. The O's added another run in the fourth to take a commanding lead.
Hernandez took advantage of the six run cushion, and allowed three runs on six hits in 6 2/3 innings while walking two and striking out two. Jim Johnson escaped the eighth after allowing a run, and George Sherrill induced a game-ending double play to pick up his 18th save.
The Birds continue the four-game set on Saturday night...Jason Berken (1-5) looks to get back on track against the Halos...Go O's!!
O' Yeah...
- Rookie outfielder Nolan Reimold was named the AL Rookie of the Month for June...my money was on Wieters for Rookie of the Year, but Reimold is making quite a case for the honor
