It’s not technically possible, I suppose, for a series to finish in three scoreless ties. But if any two teams could find a way, it’s the Orioles and Giants.
The Birds’ recent offensive woes have been well documented. They’ve scored just 21 runs in their last 10 games, including three runs or fewer in eight of them. Pretty much every prominent O’s hitter outside of Gunnar Henderson and Cedric Mullins is in a deep slump, some of which have stretched back for months. The Orioles have consistently had putrid at-bats with runners in scoring position.
It’s hard to have even the least bit of confidence in the Orioles’ ability to hit right now.
