O's look for a winning road trip today in trip finale in Toronto
Orioles 4 Blue Jays 6 That seemed like the Ernie Clement show. His defense, especially in the ninth inning, was amazing. And he was 2 for 3, with a home run, triple, 3 RBI, 3 runs. What a day he had. Spencer Miles did a nice job as the ‘bulk’ guy, going 4.1 innings, allowing […]
After a feel-good win yesterday, the Orioles put up a clunker today. As is often the way, they were unable to score much until the late innings, and this time it was too little, too late. And the recently very steady Kyle Bradish struggled and lasted just four innings. It was not a winning combo […]

Worcester: W, 6-3 (BOX SCORE) The WooSox did not have an ordinary assignment today.

[…]
Good morning Birdland, There was a whole lot of goodness in the Orioles 13-3 beatdown of the Blue Jays on Friday night, and perhaps just one small (for now) thing to worry about. First, the good news. The Orioles looked amazing, even if it took a little while for the offense to get it going. […]
