The number eight means a great deal to the baseball community in Baltimore. This Orioles team has put together its own streak with eight consecutive victories. The Birds probably will not win 2,632 games in a row, but I’m not prepared to rule it out at this time.
Baltimore kept their win streak alive today and notched a second consecutive sweep. The Orioles posted crooked numbers in the fourth and fifth innings and eventually held on for a 9-5 win over the Angels.
The offense needed to step up today after the club snuck out a 1-0 win on Saturday.
