Matusz impressive, efficient (updated)

Left-hander Brian Matusz just completed four innings against the Philadephia Phillies at Ed Smith Stadium, giving up a run on three hits and striking out two. He needed just 43 pitches -- 32 of them strikes -- to become the first O's pitcher to get through four, so he may come out for the fifth.

Instant update: Indeed, Matusz came out for the fifth and dispatched the Phillies in order. We're assuming that is it for the afternoon. He threw 57 pitches, 41 of them strikes.
