On his 24th batter of the game against the Houston Astros, Young allowed an infield hit to infielder Ramón Urías, whom the Orioles traded to Houston at the deadline. Urías hit a soft grounder to Young's right, just far away enough that he had to make a rushed and off-balance throw that veered wide of first base, allowing the batter to reach second.

Baltimore rookie right-hander Brandon Young lost his bid for the first perfect game in Orioles history with four outs remaining in a 7-0 win over the Astros.

Samuel Basallo is a catcher by trade, but he can also play first base and his bat is more than good enough to land him at designated hitter.

The Baltimore Orioles have some serious young talent on the roster. A perfect managerial hire would be a young guy in his own right.
