The Orioles annual west coast road trip came to an end in disappointing fashion on Wednesday afternoon. Like many other games this season, the O's generated some scoring chances, got a few runs, and then their disaster of a starting rotation just couldn't do anything at all good or even OK. A wild ninth inning gave them a chance, but the deficit given by the pitching staff was just too much to overcome.
With this 7-6 loss to the Mariners, the Orioles dropped the finale and the series to Seattle. The loss means that the O's will head back to Baltimore having racked up a 4-6 record on this swing through the west.
