Philadelphia Phillies at Baltimore Orioles

Cristopher Sánchez finished the sixth inning on Saturday night with the bases loaded and a one-run lead. He walked off the mound with his head high, but before he reached the visitors’ dugout at Camden Yards, he snapped his head toward the Orioles’ dugout and shouted. Sánchez is a good pitcher. He’s a good listener, too. “Yeah, they were yelling some stuff, some things,” Sánchez said via the team’s interpreter following Saturday night’s 5-0 victory over the Orioles at Camden Yards. “But what they don't know is those types of things motivate me. I saw one of their coaches talking a little, but you know, again, I take that as fuel. That fuels me, and I just get motivated about that.” Sánchez helped the Phillies snap a four-game losing streak, giving them their fourth win in 14 games since the All-Star break. He tossed six scoreless innings, but it was a weird one in that he allowed just two hits and struck out 11, but also tied a career high with five walks. * Alvarado's pregame talk with 'pen seemingly pays off in Phils' shutout win
