| idk it was pretty close |
Kevin Gausman didn't have his best stuff, which meant the Orioles kept fouling off two-strike pitches instead of whiffing right through them (in the case of the splitter that would be "over" them), and so the pitch count became untenable fairly quickly, and the overall outcome was not, in the end, as Gausmanesque as we have come to expect, but of course who cares, because the bats managed but one run on five hits. So that's that! A split against the division-leading Orioles would have felt a whole lot better than dropping three out of four, but it is hard to say that any of this is unexpected. Off to Boston for three! And we're just two games ahead of them for the third and final wild card spot, a wild card spot that will still be ours should we manage to win even one of these three games in Fenway. I don't see why we wouldn't!
