In the fourth inning of Tuesday’s game against the Yankees, a harmless fly ball landed between Cedric Mullins and Anthony Santander in right-center field. Orioles broadcaster Kevin Brown was calling the game, and made the sort of sound one would make upon noticing a gallon of milk had gone bad.
“Oh, no...” he said. “Eccchhhhh.”
Brown was referring to the one play, but he may as well have been referring to the entire game. After busting out the bats in a 7-1 victory in the series opener Monday, Baltimore looked every bit the part of a 38-67 team in a 13-1 loss to the Yankees Tuesday.
