If you don't think the Orioles' final 11 games of 2017 mean anything, think again.
The Orioles' current 2-10 stretch at a key moment is bad for the season at hand. But the ramifications of not finishing the season in a respectable fashion could be what sends the home team into a tizzy for the foreseeable future.
On Sept. 5, the Orioles made an impressive comeback against the New York Yankees at Camden Yards. Down 6-1 after two innings, the Orioles pecked away with solo home runs from Manny Machado and Jonathan Schoop in the third and fifth innings, respectively, to get the game back within reach at 6-3. Then Mark Trumbo hit a two-run shot in the sixth to make it a 6-5 game.
