Mitch Atkins(Northeast Guilford HS) looks to get Sunday start for Baltimore Orioles

from www.baltimoresun.com:

At this point, it appears that Alfredo Simon will start Saturday’s game against the Boston Red Sox followed by Mitch Atkins in Sunday’s series finale.

This would be the second start for Atkins, who got the call earlier in the week when the Birds faced the Texas Rangers and Baltimore led 2-0 while Atkins was in the game, but Texas came back to win the contest 4-2 and Atkins got the no decision……..He pitched well giving up some hits, but no walks and after the early 2-0 lead, the Orioles did end up surrendering one run while Atkins was still in, but when he left the game, the Orioles were still in front……..
