Carlos Narváez

There were multiple innings where they only saw 10 pitches or fewer.

There was a botched sacrifice bunt attempt by Carlos Narvaez thrown in there when he came in for a hurt Samuel Basayo in the seventh inning.

Certainly not a clean and pristine offense as it were.

But for this whole game, it was the Pete and Gunnar show.

He had a full season last year to get accustomed to it and will be on pace to make his 30-second start next time out in the season finale on Sunday.

How do you lock in? Do you hire a shaman? Do you get the Etsy witch? Do you go outside the organization? Do you go to driveline? How are you going to be a better mid-rotation starter next year? It's worth asking those questions.

Maybe a buddy comedy series with Carlos Narvaez down at driveline that replaces the chill next year.

Who's to say? Samuel Basayo leaves after six innings.

Oriole would not be shocked at all if Brandon Young finishes second in that voting.

Third thing you need to know from Sunday is that Carlos Narvaez, of all people, had a nice night.

Basaya was the starting catcher in the first two games, but Narvaez was behind the plate on Sunday catching Young.

And Jacob Mizorowski, who's going to win the NL Cy Young and is the best pitcher in baseball right now, throws 104 miles an hour.

He got seven whiffs.

He only allowed one hit.

Who had that hit? A third inning single from Carlos Narvaez.

The guy hitting 104, 7 for 67 with 24 strikeouts in an Orioles uniform.

I mean,

would you rather see Carlos Narvaez or Connor Wong getting the bulk of it? No.

That's the

funny thing.

Even Yoshida, that wasn't a consistent thing because whether it was Cora or Chad Tracy, they weren't sure whether to start him against lefties.

Catcher was a rotating door because Carlos Narvaez forgot how to play baseball.

And Connor Wong is okay.

His bat was a little bit better than it was
