It has been raining in and around Baltimore for nearly a week straight at this point. It no longer feels like baseball weather, and so it is fitting that the 2022 season will come to a conclusion on such a day.
Today’s two games have next to no consequences for the teams involved. The Orioles’ players will head to their respective homes afterwards and endure what should be an exciting offseason for the franchise. The Blue Jays go back to Toronto to begin to host the Wild Card series, their seeding will not change. However, that does not mean the two games are without some value.
