Orioles even on season, even with Yankees
Jimmy Paredes, Chris Davis, Adam JonesThe Orioles extended their winning streak to five games with a blowout win against the New York Yankees on Friday.
They are now three games behind New York in the American League East race.
Perhaps more important: The Orioles are finally back at .500, having not been there since May 5. They reached the even mark in game 60 – with a 30-30 record.
That’s far from sparkling for a team that had 96 wins and captured the division title last year. But through 60 games in 2014, the Orioles were just 31-29. So there’s time – and a little bit of precedent.
