It was one of the most insanely idiotic games in recent memory, and everyone that watched it is now dumber for having endured it. The Orioles were obliterated 19-8 by the Athletics on Saturday, and may God have mercy on their souls.
This was the Orioles’ worst performance of the season, and I sure hope that no other game comes close. Every orange-clad pitcher that stepped on the mound got absolutely ambushed by the Athletics’ offense, an offense that entered the day at or near the bottom of the league in all major categories. It was embarrassing.
O’s starter Cade Povich seemingly had no idea where the ball was coming out of his hand from pitch one.
