Michael Phelps takes some BP at Orioles camp, is probably better at swimming

Michael Phelps stopped by Orioles camp in Sarasota, Fla., on Thursday to hang out with Adam Jones, express his excitement for the upcoming season and take some cuts in the cage. Phelps made good contact, but swimming might be his stronger suit -- you know, with those 18 Olympic Gold Medals and all.

Here's Phelps chit-chatting with Buck Showalter and golf coach Hank Haney, who stopped by to give some  'swing' advice to Adam Jones:

And then this clubhouse guy (yes, in the Speedo) challenged the 18-time Gold Medalist to a race:
