When the Orioles set out officially on their rebuild, it was almost guaranteed that they’d play in their fair share of games like tonight, which was decided almost as soon as it began. They will probably play in more than their fair share, honestly.
The Rays manhandled the Orioles in the way you’d expect a first place team to manhandle the team expected to be the worst in baseball. They beat the Orioles 8-1 tonight without even breaking a sweat. (They do play in a temperature controlled dome after all)
David Hess was the starting pitcher for the Orioles and things were bad.
