Hear From Orioles Catcher, Baltimore Native Steve Clevenger

Yes, Steve Clevenger is a catcher for the Baltimore Orioles, but he was also born right here in Baltimore, MD.

Here we will find out what it has meant to him to have success in his home town, and what is it like waiting for a pitch from great pitchers like Sonny Gray.

Clevenger joined Ed and Steve to talk about the Orioles trying to secure a playoff birth down the stretch of this season. First, we hear from Buck Showalter about how "proud" he was of Clevenger and what he believes he can do for the team.

Steve Clevenger started off by discussing the process of how he actually finds out details of the lineup, "well you usually find out about 3pm or 3:30pm and the first person I usually text is my wife, but she usually texts me because she follows on twitter and texts me so that's how I usually find out."

Hear the full interview below:

Ed made sure to ask Steve if he has had a talk with Kevin Gausman about wearing a Saints jersey to a Ravens game saying, "Yeah, actually I think Buck brought it up to him the other day asking him why he'd wear a Saints jersey to a Ravens game...the guys have been on him, Adam's been on him... about needing to wear a Ravens jersey to a Ravens game."
