The 10 runs the Orioles scored Sunday afternoon were more than they scored in the first five games of this week’s homestand combined, which might be all you need to know about where the Orioles offense is right now.
One big outburst won’t cure this team’s offensive problems, but the 10-4 win over the Miami Marlins was enough to end the team’s season-long nine-game losing streak in front of an announced Father’s Day crowd of 21,421.
The 10 runs and 14 hits Sunday were the Orioles’ most in more than a month, since a 19-hit outburst in their 17-1 win over the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 2 of a Mother’s Day doubleheader on May 13.
