No Sweep For You: Rays 7, Orioles 6

A king can get knocked around. It can lose three straight games at home. It can even trail by two runs in the seventh inning with a four-game sweep creeping closer. But, as D’Angelo Barksdale once explained on The Wire, “The king stay the king, aight.” Jonny DeLuca helped the Rays remain atop the American […]

Orioles let sweep slip away, fall 7-6 in Tampa Bay

The Orioles took the field tonight in pursuit of a four-game sweep against the first-place Rays. The offense put the team in a position to pull it off, but the bullpen failed to hold the advantage. Yennier Cano allowed three runs in the seventh, and the Rays got the last laugh with a 7-6 win. […]

Orioles vs. Rays discussion

The Orioles will play the fourth and final game of the series tonight in Tampa Bay. Wrap-around weekend series are rare these days. So are four-game sweeps of first place teams.

Richie Palacios and the power of confidence

The Rays opted to go with the “we have McDonalds at home” approach during the trade deadline by not acquiring any external talent to upgrade at second base.

Need to get back to the west coast, stat! Rays 2 Orioles 10

The Rays defense kept the first inning from escalating into disaster. With Pete Alonso on first base, Ryan Vilade made this catch to save a run. But that’s not all! Pete Alonso was so sure this would be a hit that he was moseying around second base and even with Vilade having stand up and […]

Orioles heighten playoff push with 3rd-straight win against Rays, 10-2

After the Orioles traded Adley Rutschman, Taylor Ward, Tyler Wells and Dean Kremer before the August 3rd deadline, it was difficult to imagine them winning three straight games against a first-place team or moving into playoff position.

Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays fall to Orioles despite ninth inning rally

Saturday day was a day that ends in “Y,” so that mean the Yankees’ offense didn’t produce much.

The Yankees themselves put in a frustrating performance, but could […]
