Last Saturday, I recapped a horrific, sloppy Orioles loss to the Padres that I described as “the Birds’ absolute low point” of the season.
I may have been wrong. After tonight, they’ve got some real competition for the ugliest loss of the year.

Before I get into the bad stuff, let’s talk about Coby Mayo.
