Good morning, Birdland!
Losing that game last night would have been awfully frustrating. The Orioles left 11 runners on base and went 2-for-15 with runners in scoring position. And it wasn’t because they were getting blown away at the plate. The entire lineup struck out just three times, and they managed 10 hits, including four for extra bases.
Instead, they beat the Pirates 1-0, and therefore no inward reflection is required. Those are the rules.
We kid, of course. There are things to take away from that win.
One of them has to be the situation at second base.
