Monday Bird Droppings: The Orioles’ homestand is off to a successful start

Good morning, Camden Chatters.

It was a good weekend in Birdland, wouldn’t you say? The Orioles took two out of three games from the Red Sox, winning the rubber game by a 9-5 decision in yesterday’s waterlogged finale. Tyler Young recapped all the action, which included the O’s finally busting out the bats — going 5-for-13 with runners in scoring position — while the Red Sox stranded 10 runners on base and ended the game with their backup catcher pitching. The O’s are now just half a game behind the Sox for fourth place in the AL East, and it would be hilarious if the Orioles passed them, even if only temporarily.
