Baltimore Manager Brandon Hyde had this to say about Jordan Lyles start!

He's doing what we thought he was going to do,”This is an extremely tough division to pitch in. He's answered the bell every time. He's given us a chance to win every time out.”

Jordan Lyles had this to say about his start!

For the boys, it means so much,” Lyles said. “I spent a year or two in the bullpen. When a starter is able to scratch out another one … that means the world to those guys, game after game. It's a long season. When they can count on you to get deep into games and just wear one for the boys out there, that means a lot. And I've always taken that to heart.”
