How Big is it?


As suspected, the Orioles have followed a 6 game winning streak with a (currently active) 4 game losing streak. Only once this season have the Orioles followed a winning streak (2 consecutive wins or more) with a losing streak of fewer games than the winning streak.

The O's have also only once executed a non-losing road trip this season. It was a 3 game trip to Tampa Bay where they took two, but I suppose it still counts.

The O's are 4-4 on the current road trip with two games left in Seattle. Win one of the two and the O's will have both a winning streak as long or longer than the successive losing streak as well as a non-losing road trip.

It's an opportunity for the O's to demonstrate that the one occurrence of each of these achievements thus far this season were not flukes. This is as big a 2 game set as an O's fan has to look forward to.

Sounds like the O's are pretty consistent.
