A long stretch against the AL East is only just beginning. The Orioles’ second of three consecutive intra-division sets kicks off tonight in Toronto.
This series comes with the added storyline of a debut. Connor Norby got called up to the big leagues for the first time ever earlier today. It was a complementary move to Jorge Mateo’s trip to the seven-day IL for concussion symptoms.
This is a big deal! First, Mateo going to the IL is a blow to these Orioles. Mateo has found his groove this season, making the everyday second base role his own.
