Beating the Red Sox is always an enjoyable experience, but it is better when it clinches a series win and puts the BoSox in a bit of a bind if they wish to play deep into October. That’s exactly what the O’s 6-2 victory on Thursday night at Camden Yards achieved, and it was glorious.
Of course, it was not always apparent that this game was going to be so fun. The very first pitch that Alexander Wells threw ended up in the left field bleachers after Boston’s lead-off hitter Enrique Hernández took it for a ride.
