Hello, friends.
Another day has dawned with the Orioles in last place in the American League East. They continue to trail the division-leading Red Sox by 11.5 games, and they’re now even 1.5 games behind the fourth-place Rays, who’ve won four straight. If you want to talk wild card instead, the Orioles are 7.5 games back of the Blue Jays for the second spot.
The team’s latest loss on Sunday afternoon was a game where pretty much nothing went right except for Manny Machado being awesome. Check out Tyler Young’s recap of the game for some of the not-so-lovely totals, including the non-Machado Orioles picking up just three hits all game.
