Orioles' Burch Smith: Picks up another win
Burch Smith (4-0) allowed a run on one hit over one inning but earned the win Saturday over the Rays.Smith gave up a game-tying solo home run to Jose Caballero in the seventh inning, but the Baltimore Orioles retook the lead in the eighth and held on. This was Smith's second appearance in a row during which he's nabbed a win, and he's added two holds despite allowing two runs over 4.1 innings in August. For the year, the right-hander has a 3.83 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 38:11 K:BB over 42.1 innings between the Orioles and the Marlins.
