The O's kept pace with the Yankees by dropping both ends of a 2 game set with the Red Sox, settling the question of AL East supremacy once (and for all for O's fans at least) and extending their losing streak to 4 games.
O's starters pitched well but faltered late and the heretofore sensational bullpen got its' comeuppance in both contests. O's pitching surrendered 17 walks in the two contests extending their AL league leading total to 97 and remaining on pace to lead the league in that hallowed statistical category.
The O's offense turned in their customary anemic performance facing Schilling and Beckett in the 2 games.
O's pitching leads the AL in walks and strikeouts. It feels like the young pitchers are enamored with the K to the extent that they always go deep in counts. Just get the damn at-bat decided already!
Now it's off to Cleveland and then Detroit. Can't wait!
