With two out in the bottom of the 9th, a fatigued Benitez gave up an RBI single to Ivan Rodriguez and walked the bases loaded, bringing Greer to the plate as the potential winning run.  Baltimore brought in their lefty closer, Randy Myers – who walked the left-handed Greer.  Without another viable right-hander in the bullpen, the O’s had no choice but to let Myers face Julio Franco… and strike him out for the save.   Lost in the Orioles sweep was the phenomenal performance of Gonzalez.  He went 7 for 11 with 4 runs, 6 RBIs, 3 doubles, and two homers.  Add in the three times he walked, and I calculate his OPS for the series as 2.168.
