In losing their 10th straight game Saturday in a season-worst 16-2 loss to the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park, the Orioles again continued one of their most miserable stretches of the season in a manner that suggests it won’t end any time soon.
Starter Jorge López allowed four runs before recording an out, surrendering a run on a wild pitch and a three-run home run by Rafael Devers. He gave up seven runs in 3 1/3 innings, and he wasn’t the only Orioles pitcher to give up seven runs Saturday.
Reliever Adam Plutko, whose shocking stretch of outings now features six straight games allowing a home run, allowed two homers this time while recording two outs and allowing seven runs.
