Throughout the first week of the season the Baltimore Orioles have gotten contributions from various players to win games, and yesterday was Manny Machado‘s turn. But let’s snap forward to the end for just a moment. With the 5-3 win and the sweep of the truncated series with Tampa, the Orioles now have the best record in baseball at 5-0.
On that note I want to throw out a few words of caution to Orioles’ fans. In short, don’t get too hung up on the undefeated start. It’s noteworthy for sure, especially since it ties the best start in franchise history.
