Orioles ride Harshman shutout to sweep Tigers as rotation shines
Left-hander Jack Harshman, traded from Chicago to Baltimore last December, pitched a five hit shutout and the Orioles swept a doubleheader from Detroit 4-3 and 4-0. Harshman remains unbeaten this season, contributing to eight Orioles wins. The move, once questioned, proved pivotal as Baltimore held firm after a slipped disc scare. The day also featured Washington beating Kansas City, Cleveland and Boston splitting, and Milwaukee’s Spahn shining against St Louis. Gene Woodling homered for Baltimore and Milt Pappas won his first start despite an elbow tendon issue.
