There is good news and there is bad news about the Orioles game against the Blue Jays on Monday night.
The bad news is that the Orioles turned in another laughably pathetic offensive performance in the game, striking out more than ten times for the ninth time in the 11 games they have played this season and for the seventh game in a row. That included nine strikeouts in six innings against Jays starter J.A. Happ, who, in fairness, is a good pitcher.
The Orioles are, so far this season, in one of those modes where they seem incapable of scoring runs without hitting home runs.
