Below Par Pitchers Will Start Tonight
DETROIT AP Two pitchers not up to par this year start tonight as the Baltimore Orioles open their western swing against the Detroit Tigers. Arm e Portocarrero will start for Baltimore against Frank Lary. Portocarrero, Orioles’ winningest pitcher last year with double digits, lost his first two starts and carries a high earned run average. After a shelling by the Red Sox, manager Paul Richards said the issue was too many base runners and has given him corrective work. Lary has two defeats, allowed 24 hits in 19 innings, and last season went 316 for the Tigers.
