Hello, friends.
The good news is that yesterday’s loss to the Guardians still only counts as one loss. As bad as it was, and it was mighty bad from a pitching standpoint, that’s it. It was one game. The Orioles went from 35-20 to 35-21. Check out Andrea’s recap of the game for more of the not-so-lovely totals.
There was a lot that was not-so-lovely, which is always a shame when the O’s managed to score eight runs in a game where the other team’s starter was of the caliber of Shane Bieber. We’ve seen similar already this season - there’s a lot in common with the one where the Orioles scored five runs off of Gerrit Cole and still lost that game to the Yankees.
