ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - The matchup didn't seem to favor the Orioles on paper or in the batter's box. (article 4)
Orioles manager Dave Trembley summoned left-hander Jamie Walker from the bullpen in the sixth inning yesterday with two runners on base, two outs, the score tied and Tampa Bay's Carlos Pena due up. (article 4)
