Two trends collide as the Orioles open their second half of the season on Friday night against the Marlins. The first trend is that the O’s have not yet lost a game since the arrival of prospect Colton Cowser. They’re 5-0. The second trend is that the Orioles have, for whatever reason, been pretty bad on those occasions where they’ve been wearing the City Connect Jerseys - with a 1-4 record in those games so far. If you include games where the other team was in their own jersey, it’s worse.
Of course, there is no rational reason to believe that the City Connect jerseys have placed some kind of curse on the team.
