Friday night the Orioles dropped their fourth straight game, a 6-3 loss to the Colorado Rockies. Baltimore has now lost five of their last six after being swept in Arizona against the Diamondbacks.
After the game, Adam Jones told reporters that this defeat should wake up the ball club.
“I think this is honestly something that we needed, kind of a kick in the pants to wake us up,” center fielder Adam Jones said. “We’re in a unique position, in back-to-back years trying to do something special. Last year, everybody said we couldn’t. This year, we created the expectation. This is something you’ve got to go through to get to it.”
At 65-56, the Orioles find themselves 5.5 games back of the first place Boston Red Sox and four games back in the Wild Card race behind the Rays and Athletics.
OK, so lets see where it goes from here….
What they really need is an Ace,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Chen is an Ace.
Jim from Dundalk is an ace…acehole.
Hey three incher, I think we’ll find out in the next two weeks how this season will go. Series with the Rays, A’s, Sox, Yankees, and Indians, all who have a pony in this post season race.
Pole, save yourself a seat on the bandwagon this year. World Series bound!
Weaver said , you need pitching , defense and 3 run homers,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,all they need is an Ace,,,,,,,,,believe me they have more than enough homers in more ways than one………………
I agree with spy,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the great fans of Baltimore are being cheated ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,this was the year to make it happen , they should have had their Ace on board because they don’t become available very often , when they do you have to jump…………………..
