Friday Bird Droppings: Where the O’s Opening Day win streak is over

Good morning, Camden Chatters.

Happy day after Opening Day, everyone. The 2019 season has begun, and the O’s are already in the loss column with a dismal 7-2 defeat to the Yankees in yesterday’s season opener. If you weren’t able to catch the action, Mark Brown recapped everything you need to know about game No. 1 of 162.

If it feels like it’s been a while since the Orioles started a season 0-1, well, it has. Before yesterday, the Orioles had won on Opening Day eight straight years — all eight openers managed by former skipper Buck Showalter — which was the longest active streak in the majors.
