There is no love lost between the Orioles and Red Sox.
So far, the list of Red Sox players who caught some form of the three strains of flu and stomach virus that have been circulating the clubhouse includes Hanley Ramirez, Mookie Betts, Brock Holt, Andrew Benintendi, Mitch Moreland, Robbie Ross Jr., Kelly, Thornburg and some of the coaches.
But don’t tell that to Orioles manager Buck Showalter, who appeared to take a dig at the Red Sox during a pregame briefing with O’s beat reporters on Tuesday.
“Everybody in the league has had that issue,” Showalter said of the flu.
