For the Houston Astros will open up a weekend series hosting the first of three against the Baltimore Orioles Astros, the first place team in the A L West , the last time the Orioles face that team that was in first place to first place. The Seattle Mariners, they left Baltimore a game and a half out Orioles are hoping to play spoilers down the stretch. It’s also players and a chance for players to showcase their passions inspirations that can get creative with their bats as you can see and their cleats as well. Now pitching back to back after that day off as Froberg continues out on to the mound ready to go for the Astros in 23 starts. A 2.97 A, he has got 16 quality starts in those 23 appearances. Jackson holiday will lead things off for Baltimore this one on the ground long throw and makes it made that play look a lot easier than it was Mauricio Dub-n having a range to his right comes up throwing and there’s one away, here’s Jordan Web native 65 hitter and Jordan loops this one into right field. A charging Cam Smith will see a drop in front of him. Base hit, make it four for seven. Westberg against valdez and he’s the game’s inaugural base runner. And for me, that’s what the Orioles approach has to be right there is using gap to gap against Valdez. Here’s a rush, the switch hitting catcher rush diving, stop Correa to his feet. And what a play excellent play by Carlos Correa at third diving to his left and taking a hit away from Rutman and a run away from the Orioles Brandon Young making his 11th big league start last time. I was probably the worst of his 10 starts before gave up six runs against the A. It was his shortest outing to as an Oriole only three innings of work. That is the numbers on a zero to six and Jose Altuve familiar leadoff hitter for Houston team that’s 16th in the majors at 4.3 runs per game and a first pitch swing for Jose Altuve Soars in the right center field for Jeremiah Jackson making his Houston debut. Here’s Carlos Correa. Carlos had the day off on Wednesday. A ground ball to third nicely picked on the short hop. Westberg throws out his counterpart for out number 22 out. Nobody on for Jesus Sanchez left handed hitting left fielder Young Piers in the counts two and two. The next offering soft ground ball swept out to first fielded by Mayo who circles runs to the bag gets the force out and it’s a 123 inning for brandon Young one and one to Mount Castle batting 2 46 2 83 on base percentage. Castle pops it up along the first base side, foul ground walker over and he makes the catch a step from the dugout rail. One away. Had to measure the whole way. He knew he’s going to have to chop those steps at the end to slow down Two out nobody on for Jeremiah Jackson right handed, hitting right fielder for Baltimore and he tags this ball into center field. That’s a rocket from Jackson two out torch shot in front of Taylor and that’s the ball that we’re talking about that the Orioles need to attack right there. The ball that is left accidentally in the zone. Dylan Carlson playing left field switch hitter that one, a little half swing by Carlson is scooped into right center field for a hit that sends Jackson to third Dylan Carlson on the hard changeup. Lifts one the other way and the Orioles have 22 out hits and love that approach right there. Jeremiah Jackson right back up the middle with his base, hit this ball to the back side of the field right here and that’s what you have to do. Left handed hitting center fielder Daniel Johnson grounded sharply but right out of goes down to one knee to field. It throws to first side retired. So from works around a couple of two out singles and after 1.5 Astros nothing Orioles nothing one away here in the second inning. And so far brandon Young has all four that he has seen spinning curveball from brandon Young and it’s the second out here in the second inning and his first strikeout six of six down for Brandon Young and we’re through two innings and what a nice start. It’s been for Brandon Young. That’s 7-Up and seven down. Three outs have been recorded on the ground swing and a miss back to back strikeouts for Brandon Young and he’s twirling a gym for the right hander from Texas. Kobe Mayo. He struck out his first at bat bats with two outs here in the fourth inning. Mayo blast this one toward the Crawford Boxes and gone in a heartbeat. Kobe Mayo shoots one out of here , Kobe Mayo in his first visit to the Crawford Boxes gives the Orioles the lead to kick off the weekend. Brandon Young faces Jose Altuve trying to protect that lead against the top of the Astros order. Reaches out, finds his balance and throws out altuve over at first base. And how about brandon Young? A dozen up a dozen down four scoreless. Perfect inning from the 26 year old right hander. We go to the fifth, bring up Daniel Johnson, 0 to 1 rounded out a couple of runners on the first scoring opportunity for the Orioles that was in the second inning off of Valdez. It deflects back to Diaz and Daniel Johnson is safe at first one out baserunner. Now to the top of the order in Jackson Holiday holiday to the left side, that one sneaks past dan Johnson races his way to third. Sanchez has a throw. Daniel Johnson crushed the ball back to Valdez and Then showed off his zippy speed getting first to third Holiday with a ground ball hit and the Orioles have at the corners. So four miss from from that means the bases are loaded now with one out. And the guy who has been the Orioles best hitter in Gunner, Henderson stepping up to the plate, fastball popped him up left field. Sanchez is there from shallow left. Johnson can really run. Sanchez’s throw is not going to be in time and it kicks away. Here comes holiday dashing in from second to score. The Orioles played two on the play. A sacrifice fly from Henderson scores Johnson and Jackson Holiday read the air and throw brilliantly for brandon Young five innings, 25 pitches thrown. He’s going to look at four through six in the Houston order 13 up and 13 down for Brandon Young tonight, Ramon flied out to center field back in the second inning swing and a miss through a splint picks it tag applied. Brandon Young just keeps on dealing, benching in front of family and friends. He is through five innings where he has been perfect so far, Brandon Young 16 in a row, retired fields his own position and continues to author his best start in the major leagues. Another dazzling frame turned in by Brandon Young perfect work now through six frames in Houston tonight, the Astros have sent 18 to the plate and by has sent 18 back to the dugout. Jordan Westberg 1 to 2. He’s reached base twice tonight. Center field Jordan Westberg base hit and the Orioles have had a hit six of the seven innings against valdez eight total two on baserunner for Gunner Henderson inside, it gets away from Diaz kicked off the backboard and the throw is not caught at second. Nearly some pinball wizard for Jan Diaz but Westbury takes second on the pitch that got away to the left side through the left side. What do you know Gunner Henderson delivers again with a runner in scoring position. He is an absolute machine with runners in scoring position. Gunner Henderson hitting close to 400 now on the year with runners in scoring position throw by robert Valdez who is absolutely not had it tonight. He has struggled with his command. The Orioles have executed hitting him hard and hitting him often and now they blade one in and make it 40 and they knock out the lefty from this ball game. We’ve all been in awe of Brandon Young tonight. 18 up 18 down six perfect innings for Young who gets a ground ball to third from Jose Altuve. Another first pitch out Young has now got six and a third innings. He’s the last Oriole rookie, the first rookie to do so since we Chen went six and a third in Seattle 13 years ago, Young covers the bag at first to get the out. What a play. It’s getting real now and it’s getting real fun. 21 up 21 down by Brandon Young tonight in Houston, Texas Orioles have a 4 to 0 lead as we go to the eighth and bring back Jeff Arnold. Mount Castle crushes this one out to deep right center field Tramell chasing that’s going to hit off the bottom part of the wall. Tramell plays it fires into the cut off man but Mount Castle makes it in a second on his slide. Ryan Mount Castle mayo shoots one to the right side and that moves Mount Castle to third. Here’s Jeremiah Jackson one for three struck out in the sixth inning. We could use one of those right now. Little insurance never hurts. How about that? A little insurance up the middle served into center from Jeremiah Jackson. He’s driven in a run in three consecutive games. Mount Castle comes in to score and the Orioles have all five to Dylan Carlson Carson batting in the eight slot Carlson. The other way to left field in the corner is inside the pole. Dylan Carlson goes the other way up on the Crawford boxes the Orioles are in Seventh Heaven. They are smothering the Astros here as Carlson knocks a two run home run out to left. What the world is going through. Brandon Young’s mind right now. He is perfect through seven innings. Walker strikes out swinging a little fist pump from mom puts one in the air center field, Greg Allen just in the game collides with Johnson and the ball is caught and history continues perfect through seven and two thirds brings up the former Oriole Ramonas. That’s with two outs here in the eighth, a little ground ball. Young. The game is no more ramon Urias in his first game against the team that trained him at the deadline. He is the one to break up the perfect game and the no hitter just like that, the baseball guts would not let immortality happen tonight. And now Taylor struck him out swinging eight scoreless innings for Brandon Young. Maybe the perfect game is gone, but it is a night. He’ll never forget. Brandon Young can sit this ninth inning out after 81 hit innings. He turns the game to Yamel Geraldo making his seventh appearance of the year for the Orioles altuve Flails geraldo ends the night the night belonged to brandon Young. It belongs to the Orioles rookie. His first big league win comes in front of his dad, carry his mom, Brandy, his family, his friends from Lumberton Texas an hour and a half down the road and that embrace tells the story.
