I’m going with coincidence.
Nick Markakis led off with a double, but he never made it around to score. He’s now 68 hits behind Boog Powell for fifth on the Orioles’ all-time list.
I’m still counting.
The Orioles are 0-for-5 with runners in scoring position and have stranded two in the first two innings.
The Orioles already have two hits to exceed last night’s total. They were held to one for the first time since June 18, 2012 against the Mets in New York.
Last night marked the first time that the Orioles’ only hit was a home run since August 2, 1995, when Harold Baines delivered a solo shot in the second inning against the Blue Jays in a 1-0 victory at Camden Yards.
The Orioles have played four games when their only hit was a home run, but last night produced the only loss.
Going back to the Harold Baines game, the starting pitchers that night were Mike Mussina and Paul Menhart. The Orioles’ lineup included Bret Barberie at second base, Kevin Bass in left field and Jeff Huson at third base
