Teams that clinch a playoff spot often look sluggish their next game, but don’t tell that to these Orioles. On Wednesday night, a night after clinching a wild card slot, they swarmed Yankees pitching with nine runs on 17 hits to clinch a series win in the in the Bronx. O’s hitters began the game with a franchise-record six consecutive singles, and by the end, every starter had a hit. Gunnar Henderson and Cedric Mullins had three, and Jordan Westburg, Anthony Santander, Colton Cowser and James McCann each had two.
“It feels like we got our guys back,” said Westburg on Wednesday night.
