Analyzing the Orioles' past games reveals a team that has shown resilience and determination. Despite a challenging stretch, the Orioles have demonstrated an ability to bounce back and compete fiercely. Their hitting statistics from recent games show a need for improvement in batting average and on-base percentage but also highlight moments of power and potential for big innings.


The bullpen's performance has been notably stronger, showcasing an ability to hold leads and keep games within reach.
