The Orioles hold a 2.5-game lead in the American League East, and they’ve done so by winning eight of their last 11 games.

The pitcher – and the team – hopes a return to comfortable surroundings helps him turn around his results.

Depending on his September, Bradish could make a late push for the Cy Young Award, and Saturday’s performance was the right first step on that path.
