It’s Wednesday night and the Orioles really need to win. At best, they can split this four-game series with the Yankees, starting with a win tonight. At worst, they lose the next two, are swept for the first time this year, and the two teams are in a virtual tie for second place.
The Orioles offense has needed a jolt of late, and Mike Elias is trying to give it to them courtesy of the number 14 prospect in baseball, Colton Cowser. He will make his major league debut tonight, batting seventh. No pressure, kid! Go out there in Yankee Stadium and help this team turn its offense around.
