If Orioles top prospect Adley Rutschman was looking out the bus window at the right time as he and the Bowie Baysox hauled down to Richmond for this week’s series with the Flying Squirrels, he’ll have seen a sign for the highway headed east to Norfolk.
Four of his teammates were promoted to the Orioles’ Triple-A affiliate there just this week, taking that same road to their next minor league challenge. And each week since the beginning of June, a group of successful prospects in the Orioles’ improving farm system earned promotions to continue to develop in a more advanced environment.
