Hello, friends.
Things are not going so well for the Orioles in the closing stretch of the 2020 season. You’ve probably noticed by now. They are 3-12 in their last 15 games. They were so, so close to getting back to .500, and now instead they’re 23-33. They got the stuffing kicked out of them again last night, losing to the Red Sox, 9-1. Check out Drew Bonifant’s recap for the not-so-lovely totals.
Well, it wasn’t ALL bad. Ryan Mountcastle and Austin Hays both had three hits in the game, and Baltimore’s own Bruce Zimmermann pitched four mop-up innings with one run allowed, striking out five.
