Orioles Release Adam Eaton

Adam Eaton has been released for the second time in three months. The Baltimore Orioles released Eaton on Friday.

Eaton was 2-5 with an 8.56 ERA in eight games. In his last start on Thursday, he allowed 7 earned runs in 4.2 innings against the New York Yankees.

"Obviously, numbers don't lie, but I feel like I've got better stuff than an
8.00 ERA," Eaton said after Thursday's loss. "One thing you can count on is I'm
going to keep trying and keep working to get the numbers turned around and start
getting some wins for this team."

The Orioles will likely call up Matt Albers to be a long relief pitcher. It is unsure who will take Eaton's spot in the rotation.

Call of the day: Harry's last home run call came off the bat of Matt Stairs against the Colorado Rockies.

"Long Drive into deep right center field.. this ball is OUTTA HERE!
Matt Stairs with a two run pinch hit home run. And the Phillies have taken
a seven to five lead here in the ninth inning and battled all the way
back."
