Hello, friends.
The streak lives! After an annoying loss on Tuesday, the Orioles came right back on Wednesday and dropped a 7-0 shutout on the Jays to make it 80 straight series without being swept. That constitutes the 79 series in which Adley Rutschman has played in his MLB career, plus one more on top of that. They’ve had the post-World War II record for a while. With three more, they’d tie a streak by the 1922-24 Yankees.
It could have easily ended up differently. Dean Kremer had a laborious first inning after being pressed into service a day earlier than expected.
