It’s been a long time since the Orioles have beaten the division rival Rays. Their most recent victory came on July 19th of last season. They have since lost 15 straight games to the west Florida ball club. That includes a sweep to begin 2022.
These sorts of streaks are certainly the result of one team being very good and the other being very good, but it’s also just an oddity of probabilities. No matter what the talent gulf may be between the two squads, the Orioles should be winning at least a little more often.
