BALTIMORE -- As the calendar flips to September, the best boost the Orioles can get for their playoff hopes will come from the disabled list.
Baltimore ended August with Adam Jones, Darren O'Day, Chris Tillman and Joey Rickard either banged up or on the DL, and each player's return could go a long ways toward helping the O's get to the postseason.
"No one is going to feel sorry for you when they get through playing the anthem. Our fans have high expectations, and that's what I want them to have," manager Buck Showalter said of his club, which is chasing Boston for the top American League Wild Card spot and Toronto for the AL East.
