    Five things we learned from the Orioles' week, from Gunnar Henderson's inevitable breakout to Kyle Bradish's promising return

    After a pair of blowout losses to begin their weekend series against the Milwaukee Brewers, the Orioles rallied to win four straight, riding their own offensive explosion against the defending American League Central champion Minnesota Twins. This belied the fact he was tearing the cover off the ball, with an average exit velocity of more than 95 mph, best on the team. This was nothing new; Henderson ranked in the 91st percentile of all hitters with a 92 mph average exit velocity in his rookie season but hit .255 because he swings and misses at an above-average rate.
