Give Brian Matusz a lot of credit. He struggled throughout the early innings and still managed to fight his way through the fifth inning with the game still well within reach. So what happens, the Orioles put up four in the sixth to put him in position to win if the bullpen can hold on this time.
I won't bore you with the notion that an erratic outing can actually be a good one -- because it won't be unless the O's hold on to win -- but it's got to be great for Matusz going forward that he could win a game when he struggled so much with his command. He walked five, but gave up only two hits, and held things together when the game appeared close to blowing up in the third.
