Thursday Bird Droppings: The Orioles offense has suddenly vanished

Yesterday saw the Orioles participate in just the seventh MLB doubleheader since 1903 where the home team and road team switched roles between games while remaining in the same stadium. The sixth began a mere hour before the O’s-Marlins doubleheader, as the Yankees-Phillies games, also impacted by pandemic rescheduling, had the home/away switch as well.
It was not a good day for the O’s. Though they only gave up a combined six runs across both games, they were swept in the doubleheader. That’s because they only managed to score one run between both games.
