Neagle K's 11 En Route to 2-1 Orioles Win
Baltimore starter Denny Neagle put a stranglehold on the Oakland offense. The left-hander had complete command of his circle change in leading the Orioles to a 2-1 win. Hector Mercado earned the save for Baltimore, his 4th of the year. With the win, Baltimore elevates its record to 13-8.

Neagle made it look effortless. He scattered 4 hits over 7 innings, while racking up 11 strikeouts. The Baltimore left-hander encountered little resistance from the Oakland hitters. His season record is now 2-3.

Neagle called the win a test of his team's "mettle."
