The Orioles’ sweepless series counter can be set back to 0.
The O’s suffered just their second sweep in the last two years — and their first by an American League team since April 2022 — in an instant dud of a finale in Houston, 8-1. The Orioles couldn’t pitch. They couldn’t hit. They didn’t play particularly good defense. It was 2021 all over again, and the O’s now head back to Baltimore on a three-game skid.
All right, Albert Suárez, I know your previous outing was a bit of a rough one (six hits, five walks at Yankee Stadium) but today is a brand new day.
