Striking out Bo Bichette to end it. Seranthony Domínguez probably would have been the Orioles’ closer tonight, but he was traded to the opposing team in between games and actually wound up working a scoreless seventh versus his very recent teammates. We’d say that puts Andrew Kittredge (another strong trade candidate) and Yennier Cano in line for saves in Baltimore, but Martin was the choice after Kittredge worked a scoreless eighth tonight (Cano pitched in game one), and he got through the ninth in spite of a HBP and a walk to start the inning. Martin has allowed just one run in six innings since rejoining the Orioles on July 18. Still, he has significant issues with home runs and walks, which is why he’s spent far more time in the minors than in the majors in recent years. He doesn’t come recommended at this point.
