The Orioles were officially eliminated from postseason contention with their loss to the Red Sox last night. If they win out, they would finish 28-32. If the #8 seed Blue Jays lose out, they would finish 28-32. There is no “Game 61” tiebreaker scenario in 2020. It’s just head-to-head record, and the O’s, unfortunately, are 1-6 against the Jays. The unlikely 12-8 start to the season has ended up being a fun first 20 games and not much more.
Even that amount of fun was more than I expected in February or once teams reported for the shortened season in July.
