It normally goes unsaid, but you can’t win if you don’t score. The Orioles have totaled two runs in their last three games. Unsurprisingly, the Yankees won all three of those contests.
After the Orioles were blown out in a seven-inning doubleheader yesterday, they found their way to extra innings this afternoon. Hunter Harvey entered to pitch the 10th and immediately fired a wild pitch. A year ago, just a 1-0 count. But with the new rule that has extras begin with a runner on second base, it made all the difference.
