Saturday night was a great palate cleanser for all of Birdland after a series opener vs. the Diamondbacks that left a bad taste in all of our mouths. The O’s again got great pitching, Cedric Mullins and Adley Rutschman each went deep and Baltimore dominated the game from the fourth inning onward to secure the win. The Orioles will look to repeat that effort this Sunday afternoon as they try to score a series win to start their West Coast road trip.
If the O’s are going to get a win today, they’ll likely need a better effort than Jack Flaherty’s last start in the Pacific Time Zone.
