Povich (2-1) collected the win in Tuesday's 3-1 victory over the Angels, allowing seven hits and a walk over six scoreless innings. He struck out seven.
Analysis:Called up earlier in the day to fill the vacancy in the Orioles rotation created when Dean Kremer was traded to the Twins, Povich dazzled in his first big-league start since May 7, tossing 60 of 88 pitches for strikes as he produced his second quality start of 2026. Through 25.1 MLB innings this year, the southpaw has a 3.91 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 19:8 K:BB. Chris Bassitt (back) is closing in on a return from the IL, which will likely bump Povich back to Triple-A Norfolk, but if he gets another turn it's set to come on the road this weekend against the Rangers.
