Well, uh...at least Trey Mancini had a nice game.
The Orioles’ opener at Wrigley Field this afternoon went about as poorly as possible, with the Birds’ pitching staff getting wrecked for 10 runs while the O’s offense went 2-for-9 with runners in scoring position en route to a Cubs blowout win. Mancini, the still-popular former Oriole, put up an excellent performance against his ex-teammates, doubling twice and reaching base in all four plate appearances. So, you know, good for him. I guess.
The second stop of the Cole Irvin Comeback Tour didn’t go nearly as well as the first.
