Wow, folks. What were we all worried about going into this series? Fans were predicting a sweep at the hands of the Braves, it was all doom and gloom now that the so-called soft part of the schedule was over.
What the Orioles will look like at the end of their long stretch against winning teams remains to be seen, but they sure got things going on the right foot tonight with their 9-4 win over the first-place Braves.
A seven-run seventh inning gave the Orioles the oomph they needed to ride out the win after a six-inning pitchers’ duel between Dean Kremer and Atlanta’s ace, Max Fried.
