This has been a weird series. The first game took forever, lasted 11 innings, saw the Orioles walk a million times, and somehow pull out the win. The second game took even longer due to multiple weather delays, Travis Lakins torpedoed everything, and the O’s bats were asleep once agin. In between the two we learned that John Means could be out for the season, but maybe not, although it is definitely going to “be a while.”
It’s up to Bruce Zimmermann to return the Orioles to a state of normalcy. The lefty was terrific in the team’s home opener earlier this week.
