There may soon come a time when the Yankees and Orioles are bitter rivals again, but that didn’t happen in the two AL East teams’ first series of 2023.
The Yankees entered Camden Yards, put up a strong effort in a Friday loss, and then won the next two games to take the series. The top of the lineup is performing as expected and both the middle and lower thirds are coming together. Pitching overcame a rough start Friday and took care of itself the rest of the way.
As for the Orioles, they won’t see New York again until a visit to the Bronx in late May.
