Boy. When you’re a 24-52 baseball team, and when you’re a pitcher with a 6.42 ERA, things can get really, really bad in a really, really small amount of time.
The Baltimore Orioles, and Keegan Akin, provided the latest example Saturday afternoon.
Akin struggled again and the Orioles were handled by the homer-happy Toronto Blue Jays of Buffalo and their trio of four-run innings, 12-4.
It goes down in the box score as another one of “those games” for the Orioles and their pitcher, both of whom are in the middle of difficult 2021 seasons.
