The Baltimore Orioles have been relatively quiet as they go about their business like O's Skip Showalter would want them to about it and that is not the loudest one in the room. Well don't tell Chris "CRUSH" Davis and Adam Jones that because on most nights they are the loudest ones in the Clubhouse and on the field.

O's Starter Scott Feldman went 6 2/3 allowing two runs on five hits with two free passes and three strike outs. He gets the "W" and was backed up by O's first baseman "Crush" Davis' 45th Souvenir of the two-run variety and "Me and Mr. Jones"...Adam that is hits his 25th Souvenir also of the two-run variety. The O's scored crooked two's in the 3rd, 7th, and 8th frames to beat the Rockies 7-2. The Rocks had a chance down 3-0 as they scored two in the 7th to chase O's Starter Feldman but the "s came right back with two's in the bottom half of the 7th and some insurance in the 8th. Rockies Starter Jhoulys Chacin takes the "L" as he goes 5 1/3 allowing three runs on nine hits with two walks and striking out five and giving up the Jones 2-Run HR.

The O's now are just 5 1/2 back of the Carmines in the AL East race. Better than that just three games behind the AL Wild Card #2 Slot the Oakland Athletics by three games. The Rocks are out of both the NL West race and NL Wild Card Race unless they go undefeated for three weeks.
