Orioles' historic wins fueled by youth, as Chance Sisco, Anthony Santander give glimpses of future

On a weekend that might go down as the best Camden Yards has to offer this season — beginning with a pair of 13-0 wins and hearty crowds for the team's signature giveaways — it's not the what as much as the whom that should be heartening to Orioles fans.

All year long, the Orioles (24-58) have been an inexperienced team, but not necessarily a young one. Some roster shuffling over the past month has added some actual youth to their lineup, and this weekend is showing some of the fruits of it. Catcher Chance Sisco, 24, and outfielder Anthony Santander, 24, each homered in consecutive games, while designated hitter Renato Núñez, a young 25, hit two homers to give him a team-high 18.
