Just about everything that could’ve gone wrong in this one did, as the Orioles saddled the Yankees with a 14-1 loss to finish a series split that ended in disaster after New York won the first two games. The Bombers couldn’t solve Kyle Bradish’s breaking balls — the righty allowed just five baserunners through six scoreless — and Luis Severino got blown out for the fourth (arguably fifth) time since the beginning of June.
Severino’s fastball velocity actually looked okay early — the 3-2 pitch that Gunnar Henderson slapped down the left field line for a leadoff homer was 97.
