The Orioles have a chance today to win three series in a row for the first time since June 26-July 7, 2024.Coby Mayo is the designated hitter and Emmanuel Rivera is playing first base. Ryan O’Hearn goes to the bench.

The Orioles had a golden opportunity to keep building momentum today. Baltimore needed a victory against the last-place Athletics to win their eighth game in nine tries and their third consecutive series. Instead, the O’s will fly back east after losing two out of three against one of the worst teams in baseball.

The Orioles couldn’t find more late-game magic Friday night in a 5-4 loss to the Athletics, ending a season-high six-game winning streak.

The Baltimore Orioles were on a six-game winning streak heading into the series with the A's. Now the Athletics appear to be back on track.

Where one win streak ends another can begin. The Orioles dropped the opener to this series on Friday, but this still feels like games that they should be winning. Let’s hope that happens tonight in Sacramento.

After Charlie Morton allowed four runs in the first inning, the Orioles’ bullpen picked him up and Colton Cowser and Gunnar Henderson did the rest.
