The Orioles had many chances to win the game and probably should have done so. Let’s hope they don’t regret losing it.
It’s hard to get a sweep on the road, even against a bad team. The Orioles did well in their series against the Rays to win the first two games. They already won by winning the series. Yet in what seems to be a disappointing Orioles fashion, they played a dismal series finale to bum us all out again, losing a completely winnable game to the Rays, 7-6.
In general, there will be a tough time winning a baseball game in which the starting pitcher gives up five runs.
