It’s hard to sweep a doubleheader. It’s hard to sweep a doubleheader even when both games are seven innings in regulation. It’s hard to sweep a doubleheader against even the Baltimore Orioles. It’s hard to sweep a doubleheader after the extra inning chaos that was Game 1.
I keep repeating these thoughts, but they provide no comfort.
Things even got off to a great start, too! After a thrilling, eight-inning extra-innings win (yeah it’s still weird baseball mode here) in Game 1, Nick Margevicius began his first start of the year with a bang, allowing just a single to Anthony Santander and a double to Ryan Mountcastle through his first two frames.
