The Orioles finally seemed to find a rhythm during this homestand, stringing together their best stretch of baseball this season — until the rain came to interrupt it all over the past two days.
The result of the Orioles’ scheduled two-game interleague series with the Philadelphia Phillies was one postponement — Tuesday’s rainout will be played July 12, a call made after a 3-hour delay — and a rain-soaked 4-1 loss to the Phillies on Wednesday at Camden Yards.
An Orioles team that averaged 8.3 runs a game during the first seven games of the homestand managed just one run on four hits Wednesday.
