The Orioles have shown remarkable resilience and skill in their recent games. A standout performance came on July 7th against the Athletics, where they secured a 6-3 victory. This game was emblematic of their current form; despite committing one error, they managed to outplay their opponents with strategic hitting and solid pitching. The bullpen's ERA stood impressively at 0.0 over three innings, showcasing their ability to shut down opposing hitters when it matters most.


Another notable game was on July 6th against the same team, where despite a loss, the Orioles demonstrated their offensive capabilities by scoring eight runs and amassing sixteen hits. Their batting average soared to .400 for that game, coupled with an OPS (On-base Plus Slugging) of 1.057 - numbers that any team would envy.

However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for Baltimore; on July 5th against Oakland again, they faced challenges but managed to emerge victorious with a scoreline of 3-2. This victory was built on disciplined pitching and taking advantage of opportunities when they arose.


The Yankees come into this matchup as formidable opponents but not invincible ones. The Orioles have shown that they possess both the firepower and tactical acumen required to take on high-caliber teams.

The key for Baltimore will be maintaining their recent offensive momentum while ensuring their pitchers continue delivering low ERA performances as seen in past games.
