You guys. Can we stop for a moment and appreciate how awesome it is to be an Orioles fan right now?
Only two years ago on this date, the Orioles were 31 games below .500, languishing through their fifth straight irrelevant season, and were in the middle of a losing streak that would reach 19 straight games. They were unsightly. Inept. Incompetent. It felt like it would be eons until the O’s were even watchable again, let alone legitimate postseason contenders.
Tonight, the O’s felt like the kings of the world. An energetic, sellout crowd of 44,326 packed the Camden Yards stands.
