in his Orioles debut in Baltimores 9-7 win over to the Toronto Blue Jays on
Saturday. Cruz, who signed with the Orioles on Monday, walked and scored from
first on Davis double. Manager Buck Showalter was eager to get Cruz, who batted
second and was the designated hitter, into the lineup. Cruz signed a one-year,
$8 million contract with the Orioles. "It doesnt feel like butterflies or
anything. Buck asked me if I was nervous. I feel normal, I guess, as soon as I
come out to the field. Its something I havent done for a while. It comes
natural," Cruz said. In his first game of the spring, Davis, who led the majors
with 53 home runs last season, was 1 for 3 with the opposite-field double. Davis
was glad to play again with Cruz. The two were teammates in Texas. "Like
clockwork. I was glad to see him work an at-bat like that. I think thats kind of
where were all at after the first few days. Get in there, see some pitches. You
just cant simulate this stuff. Youve got to be out there, youve got to turn on
the competition again, and I felt good," Davis said. Toronto starter
Drew Hutchison, battling for the fifth starters job, struck out four in throwing
two scoreless innings, allowing one hit. Miguel Gonzalez gave up one run on
three hits in two innings for Baltimore. The Orioles overcame a 7-2 deficit when
they scored seven runs in the eighth. The big hits were a three-run triple by
Francisco Peguero and a two-run single by Xavier Paul. Peguero, who signed with
Baltimore in December, began the inning with a single. STARTING TIME Blue Jays:
Hutchison must beat out Todd Redmond and Esmil Rogers to make the staff. "I dont
really know where my velocity was today," Hutchison said..
Matt Stajan Jersey. "I was more worried about
throwing strikes and being crisp. The only thing, I got into a couple of deep
counts, but other than that, it was a good day." Orioles: Gonzalez, who has a
starting spot for Baltimore secured, is pitching as if he wasnt already
guaranteed a job. "Youve still got to go out there and perform. You cant take it
easy, no matter what. I think theres guys out there that want our position, so
weve got to keep doing our work," Gonzalez said. TRAINERS ROOM Orioles:
Outfielder Henry Urrutia will miss at least two days with a sore right shoulder.
. Outfielder Quintin Berry, who had been sidelined with back spasms, pinch ran
in the eighth inning and scored a run. Blue Jays: Pitcher Casey Janssen has a
tender right shoulder, but its not considered serious, manager John Gibbons
said. . Third baseman Brett Lawrie (hamstring) and outfielder Edwin Encarnacion
(wrist) didnt make the trip, but their absences were precautionary, Gibbons
said. LOOKING AHEAD Showalter said that right-hander Ubaldo Jimenez would make
his first start against Philadelphia on Friday. Jimenez has yet to appear since
he was signed to a four-year, $50 million contract late last month. . Outfielder
Mike Yastrzemski, a Baltimore minor leaguer, will play in the Orioles game
against Boston in Fort Myers on Sunday. Hes the grandson of Red Sox Hall of
Famer Carl Yastrzemski. HONORING BARLOW A number of Baltimore players wore
wristbands honouring Monica Barlow, the teams director of public relations, who
died of cancer on Friday at 36. "She just helped me a lot with making the right
decisions and doing things that not just helped me, but helped the team instead
of just doing things just for the sake of doing them," outfielder Adam Jones
said.
