I hate to start an article with a silver lining, but let’s start this article with a silver lining. But first, we need something to line with silver, which means we need something bad. So let’s skip the drama and excitement and suspense and start with the end (a very bad place to start, or so Julie Andrews would lead me to believe): the Baltimore Orioles beat the San Francisco Giants 3-2 on Friday night.
Now, onto that silver lining. The Giants and Orioles played a fun, competitive, delightful game. You might not have enjoyed it, but that’s your Giants bias speaking.
