The Orioles left Boston feeling sour following their 4-2 loss to the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park having just been handed their first loss of the season.
They won their first seven games of the season for their best start in club history, but eventually they were going to lose, whether it was in the series finale at Fenway on Wednesday, sometime during their upcoming four-game series in Texas or even after that.
“I think if you’d have told us when the season started that we’d get off to the start we did, I think we’d have been happy with it,” said first baseman Chris Davis, who drove in the Orioles’ only runs Wednesday with a two-run homer.
