While today’s MLB has some of the best pitchers ever to stand on the mound, the Baltimore Orioles had some notable pitching moments throughout history.

One of those moments was in 1957 when the Baltimore Orioles had four consecutive shutouts, which set an AL record.

The NL record belongs to the 1903 Pittsburgh Pirates who had six in 1903.
