Tuesday Bird Droppings: Where the Orioles’ momentum sputtered in a hurry

Good morning, Camden Chatters.

Just when you think the Orioles have managed to build some sort of momentum, coming off a thrilling series win in New York, they come home and scuffle through the kind of clunker that reminds you how frustrating the club can be.

In front of a cold, empty Camden Yards, the Orioles were an astounding 0-for-12 with runners in scoring position. Dylan Bundy went criminally unsupported in twirling another gem and is now 0-1 despite a 1.35 ERA. Rule 5 pick Nestor Cortes gave up his second career grand slam despite having pitched only four major league games.
