MLB Note - Baltimore Orioles Tillman, Chris

Aug 21, 2017 - 7:05 AM RHP Chris Tillman made his first start since being demoted to the bullpen more than two weeks ago. The right-hander allowed four runs, four hits and tied a career-high with six walks over 5 1/3 innings. Tillman, who opened the year on the DL, managed his only win on May 7. "You cut the walks in half that's a different ball game," said Tillman, who is 1-7. "That's just too many. Too many to try to pitch out of. You can't expect to win a game walking that many. Other than that, I thought it was OK. Made some good offspeed pitches, fastball was a little better. I still think it was a step in the right direction minus the walks. I got to limit those."
