Wednesday Bird Droppings: On the doorstep of a playoff spot

Good morning, Birdland!

Was that the finest win of this Orioles’ season? It sure felt like it in the moment. The O’s took an early lead only to squander it, thanks in part to a pair of questionable plays from Rougned Odor. Then the rain came, and it’s like a switch flipped. The bullpen shut down the Blue Jays, the bats came alive, and Odor came up clutch for a 6-5 win.

The victory earned the Orioles their third series win of August, and it drew them within half a game of a wild card spot.
