Starting pitchers: Orioles RHP Dylan Bundy (3-2, 3.30 ERA) vs. Rockies RHP Jon Gray (6-4, 4.12 ERA)

What to watch

1. Bundy No. 3: Dylan Bundy makes his third start since joining the rotation, and he took a step forward his last time out. After allowing three homers in 3 1/3 innings in his first career start, he allowed one unearned run on five hits in five innings in his second start. Can he improve on that solid outing tonight against the Rockies?

2. Party Hardy: J.J. Hardy had a day off Sunday and went 0-for-3 on Monday, only to continue his string of multihit performances Tuesday. He went 2-for-3 in the loss to the Rockies and was the only Oriole to finish with more than one hit in the contest. Hardy now has five two-hit games in his past six appearances and 10 in his past 17. Does he have another one coming tonight?

3. Gray matters: Rockies starter Jon Gray is having an exceptional July, with a 2.05 ERA in 26 1/3 innings over four starts this month. All four outings have been quality starts and two have come at home in the thin air of Coors Field. Will he provide another good start tonight at Camden Yards?
