Jones for Showalter

Adam Jones continued his hot hitting tonight with a 3 for 5 game as the Orioles downed the Mariners 5-4 in 11 innings. Jones is batting .382, 21 for 55 since Buck Showalter took the reigns of the team. Adam adds eight extra base hits and four walks to that average, along with 10 runs and 9 RBI. The Orioles are now 10-4 since Showalter took over.

Update: I was remiss in not mentioning that Jones’s RBI tonight came in the 11th on a two out bunt single that won the game.
