This year’s Marlins still don’t know what it’s like to sweep a series.
Despite having won five of their past six entering the game, the Marlins allowed double-digit runs to baseball’s lowest-scoring team as the last-place Orioles hammered their pitchers 10-4 on Sunday afternoon at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
The Orioles (20-50) snapped a season-worst nine-game losing streak and an 11-game skid at home. Baltimore’s run total was its highest since that last home victory May 13 against the Rays.
What stretches of success the Marlins (28-44) have had this season has been mostly tied to their starting pitcher’s ability to keep opponents in check.
