Good morning, Camden Chatters.
Remember when the Orioles scored 15 runs on Friday and we were like, “Hey, maybe this offense is figuring things out?” Those were the days.
Instead, the Birds’ offense fell back into its stagnant state yesterday, managing just three runs in losing to the Red Sox. Tyler Young recapped the 4-3 defeat, which dropped the Orioles further back in the Wild Card race. The O’s now sit 2.5 games behind the Rays, who won yesterday, for the third and final Wild Card spot. The Orioles are 3.5 behind the top two Wild Card holders, the Mariners and Blue Jays, with the latter once again defeating the utterly collapsing Yankees.
