Trey Mancini has tied for the most home runs by an Orioles rookie before the All Star Break, with 13
Odubel Herrera has been just horrible in the field and running the bases. A couple days ago he ran right around the third base coach telling him to stop and got picked off at third base in the same game. Yesterday he missed a catchable ball which led to the game’s first run and then got picked off again to end the top of the sixth.Yes, he was finally benched.
