Hello, friends.
The Orioles finally escaped the dreadful month of August. It did not help them get into the win column right away. The fact that they “only” lost by one run to the Blue Jays last night, instead of getting blown out like they did so often in August, and that one run scored when Oriole-killer Randal Grichuk hit a sacrifice fly, doesn’t make the losing much better. Check out Paul Folkemer’s recap of the game for the not-so-lovely totals.
In any year before 2020, the month of September might have made for a series of interesting, or at least what passes for interesting on a bad team, minor league call-ups.
