Workman Watch
Former Bowie High School and current Boston Red Sox pitcher Brandon Workman earned his first win of the season in a 1-0 victory over the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards on Tuesday.
Workman struck out four and allowed just one walk and one hit each in 6-2/3 innings of work.
With the victory, the Bowie Hall of Honor inductee dropped his season earned-run average to 2.86.
Ex-Texas Ranger Mike Napoli won the game for Boston and Workman with an RBI single in the third inning.
Workman is expected to start Sunday’s game at home versus the Cleveland Indians.
This feature will run in every edition of The Bowie News for the rest of the baseball season.

Petunia ‘relative,’ Calibrachoa shines
There is a new flower showing up at garden centers that is pure magic, in fact its official name is Superbells Magic Double Grapefruit. If you aren’t familiar with the name, it is a calibrachoa, a petunia relative. Double gives reference to flowers that in this case look like miniature roses.
Magic is your key descriptor telling you that the flower changes colors. The flowers start off a pleasant lemon yellow and then age to a rose pink.
Of course, to get to rose pink you have various shades along the way. Another magical aspect to me, the guru of captivating combinations is that it seems no matter the color you choose it will go with Superbells Magic Double Grapefruit calibrachoa.
