So let’s just get this one out of the way. The Rangers knocked the Orioles out of the playoffs last year. Texas only needed three games to secure the series, even though Baltimore hadn’t been swept all season. You remember, I remember, now let’s try to forget about it.
The Orioles are focused on this season. Unfortunately, the Birds have struggled over the past week. Baltimore appeared to finally run out of gas after an emotional series win over the Yankees. The club dropped consecutive sets against Houston and Cleveland.
Texas fell to 37-43 after its walk-off loss on Wednesday, but the Orioles should not expect a lack of fight.
