Corbin Burnes Pitches A Gem On Opening Day
11 months agoThe Baltimore Orioles' prized offseason acquisition and Opening Day starter Corbin Burnes tossed six innings of scoreless ball on Thursday, securing the win in an 11-3 victory over the Angels. The three-time All-Star struck out 11 batters and didn't allow a walk. The only blemish was a solo homer given up in the first inning to future Hall of Famer Mike Trout. Sometimes it plays out just the way you drew it up -- the O's get off on the right foot in their defense of last year's American League East division title, and Burnes rewards fantasy managers who spent a second-round pick on the 29-year-old with a masterful start to the season. Burnes' next start could come at home next Wednesday against the Royals.
