The Orioles refuse to lose to teams named the Sox this season. Fresh off their four-game mop of the White Sox, the O’s returned to Camden Yards on Memorial Day and grilled the Red Sox like so many holiday weekend meats, rocking and rolling to an easy and fun 11-3 victory. There’s just something about these Boston pitchers that gets the O’s going, which is why they’re 4-0 against the Red Sox so far this season.
The story of the game is the Orioles offense. This was not actually an outcome that was guaranteed or even necessarily likely.
