Orioles starting pitcher John Means allowed seven runs on six hits in one-plus inning in his first rehab assignment for Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.
Means started four times last September after recovering from April 2022 Tommy John surgery. The Orioles had hoped he’d start during the American League Division Series against the Texas Rangers in October.
However, Means was not put on the active roster, and the Orioles decided he should rest his elbow in the offseason. He didn’t pitch in any Grapefruit League games.
Means threw 32 pitches against Durham, walking one and striking out two. He gave up two home runs.
His rehab assignment can last up to 30 days.
