The Baltimore Orioles opened up the 2016 season against the Minnesota Twins in the third home opening series against Minnesota since 2012. Oddly enough, the last time the O’s swept a home opening series was in 2012 against the Twins and we all know how that season finished up.
The Orioles came into this series asking several questions. How reliant will this team be on the home run? Can the starting pitching rebound from last season? Will the bullpen continue to be the saving grace it has been for the past four season?
Several of those were answered right on Opening Day.
