3rd & 7 37yd

Here's Marcus Carpenter, 31, of Easton. I don't think the lighting does the orange glitter beard justice. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DZej8XXW0AImI5r.jpg

All of the #Orioles out of the dugout to greet and get a photo with longtime head athletic trainer Richie Bancells after his ceremonial first pitch as Margaritaville plays in the background.

Longtime #Orioles head athletic trainer Richie Bancells -- who retired at end of last season -- throws ceremonial first pitch, Adam Jones catching. Entire team comes onto the field for hugs and a photo.

Baltimore natives Marjorie Edmonds and Sheryl Nelson, both 60, have been friends since 9th grade and coming to Opening Day for years. Edmonds, left, was a Junior Oriole from age 9 to 15. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DZelWxNW4AI7jBS.jpg

Dylan Bundy is almost all fastballs in a 1-2-3 first. Up to 93.5 mph, mostly 91-92 mph, with a pair of warning track fly balls and a lazier but difficult one to right. #Orioles

by Jon Meoli via twitter 3/29/2018 7:13:29 PM
Dylan Bundy retires the #Twins in order in the top of the first on three fly-ball outs. #Orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 7:13:55 PM
The new Chris Davis, who said he's going to be more aggressive this season, watches first-pitch strike go by him, fouls second pitch off, falls behind 0-2. #Orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 7:16:47 PM
Chris Davis works the count full against Jake Odorizzi and flies out to left. Manny walks up and doubles off the wall in right field. And so it begins. #OpeningDay

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 3/29/2018 7:18:57 PM
Machado laces a cold rope the other way for a double to right field. #Orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 7:19:10 PM
Jon Schoop gets green light on 3-0, swings for fences, right through the pitch. #Orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 7:21:06 PM
Schoop strikes out after going ahead 3-0. #orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 7:22:45 PM
Manny Machado hit a double to right field with one out in the #Orioles first, but Jonathan Schoop and Adam Jones strike out swinging to leave him there.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 3/29/2018 7:25:21 PM
Odorizzi gives up the double to Manny, but strikes out Jonathan Schoop after falling behind 3-0 on the count and gets Adam Jones on a sweeping 2-2 breaking ball. We're scoreless after one and the season is really starting to drag. #OpeningDay

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 3/29/2018 7:27:07 PM
Guess Buck Showalter knows what he's doing. Surprise starter Craig Gentry steals a home run from Eddie Rosario with spectacular catch in right field. #OpeningDay

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 3/29/2018 7:28:47 PM
Craig Gentry leaps at the RCF wall and extends over the fence to bring back Eddie Rosario's home-run ball. #orioles #twins

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 7:28:49 PM
Bundy freezes Eduardo Escobar with a curveball for a inning ending strikeout in the top of the 2nd. Six up, six down for Bundy. #Orioles #Twins

Pedro Alvarez walking up to Notorious BIG's "Juicy" never gets old. #Orioles #Twins #OpeningDay

Dylan Bundy's first swinging strike comes on his 27th pitch of the game, a slider with one down to Byron Buxton. Then he did it twice more. K. #Orioles

by Jon Meoli via twitter 3/29/2018 7:47:10 PM
Tim Beckham, tracking toward the LF line, has a hard chopper bounce off the heels of his glove. The first of many plays that will be evaluated on the Manny Machado scale. But Bundy out of it. 0-0.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 3/29/2018 7:51:46 PM
Dozier hits ball down 3B line that hits off Beckham's glove for an e-5, but Bundy strands two baserunners in the 3rd. #Orioles #Twins

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 7:52:04 PM
Dylan Bundy gets out of a minor jam. Gets Joe Mauer on soft groundout with two on and two-out in third. #OpeningDay

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 3/29/2018 7:52:17 PM
Dozier hits ball down 3B line that hits off Beckham's glove, but it is ruled a hit. Bundy then gets groundball out from Mauer to strand two baserunners in the 3rd. #Orioles #Twins

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 7:53:01 PM
Jake Odorizzi doesn't seem to interested in pitching to Manny Machado this time. Walks him on four pitches. #OpeningDay

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 3/29/2018 7:57:37 PM
Manny Machado draws a two-out walk in the 3rd and then steals second. 2-0 count to Schoop. #orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 7:59:48 PM
Schoop grounds out on sharp ball to third. #Orioles and #Twins are scoreless after three full innings.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 8:02:25 PM
Eddie Rosario steals second with two outs in the 4th. Close play, no challenge. #Orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 8:10:37 PM
Bundy issued one out walk to Rosario, his first of the game, but still hasn't allowed a run through four innings. #Orioles #Twins #Opening Day.

Dylan Bundy through 4: 2 H, 1 BB, 3 K. Five swinging strikes (four sliders and a fastball) out of 35, 54 pitches. #Orioles

Two Ks--one swinging and one looking--from Dylan Bundy in a slider-heavy fifth inning. He has scattered three hits in five innings with five Ks. #Orioles

by Jon Meoli via twitter 3/29/2018 8:26:28 PM
Bundy strands Buxton in scoring position at 2B in the 5th after striking out Dozier looking on four straight sliders. #Orioles #Twins

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 8:27:10 PM
#Orioles waste leadoff walk to Alvarez in the 5th, Davis grounds out into the shift to end the inning. #Orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 8:36:08 PM
Dylan Bundy is into the #Twins order a third time for the sixth inning. He didn't pay much of a penalty for it last year--if he got to that point, he usually had the good stuff. #Orioles

by Jon Meoli via twitter 3/29/2018 8:38:44 PM
#Orioles defense does Dylan Bundy (and itself) some favors. Beckham starts a tough 5-4-3 DP after leadoff single, then Schoop, in shift, backs up Davis after chopper gets through and hits a covering Bundy for 4-1.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 3/29/2018 8:42:39 PM
Rosario grounder got by Davis, but Schoop and Bundy didn't give up on play. Schoop was backing up, made play in OF grass and threw to Bundy covering. That followed a 5-4-3 double play that wasn;'t easy. #Orioles .

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 8:43:11 PM
The #Orioles have two hits through six innings, and none since Trey Mancini singled to open the 2nd.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 3/29/2018 8:52:29 PM
Dylan Bundy with two more Ks (and seven more swinging strikes) in a scoreless seventh. He's fanned seven in seven shutout innings. #Orioles

by Jon Meoli via twitter 3/29/2018 9:00:22 PM
Dylan Bundy has seven strikeouts through seven scoreless innings. He's scattered five hits, mixed his pitches well. Remember when you were worried about those five-run outings in spring training? #Orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 3/29/2018 9:00:53 PM
Announced sellout crowd of 45,469 at Camden Yards for #Orioles and #Twins .
