Orioles Snap Losing Streak, Face Tough Test Against Blue Jays

Summary

  • Orioles win 2 straight after All-Star break
  • Face Blue Jays, who have best record in AL
  • Orioles trail Blue Jays by 15.5 games in AL East

The Baltimore Orioles have finally found some success, winning two games in a row after Sunday's 5-1 victory over the Colorado Rockies. This marks the Orioles' first winning streak since July 10-11. However, the challenge now rises considerably as they host the Toronto Blue Jays for a four-game series starting on Monday.

The Orioles are going from facing the team with the worst record in the majors to the team with the best. Despite their recent wins, the Orioles are still 4-6 since the All-Star break and trail the Blue Jays by 15.5 games in the American League East. The Blue Jays, on the other hand, are 8-2 since the break and have won four games in a row before Sunday's 10-4 loss to the Detroit Tigers.

The series will be a tough test for the Orioles, who have split six meetings with the Blue Jays so far this season. The Blue Jays will be without catcher Alejandro Kirk, who suffered a concussion and was placed on the injured list. The Orioles are also expected to make some roster adjustments ahead of the trade deadline on Thursday.
