From ESPN: "The Baltimore Orioles can clinch their first series win in more than a month when they host the San Francisco Giants on Saturday."
It's that kind of season folks.

O’s starter has an ERA of 6.5 and has already given up 18 homers. Could pitch a no-hitter today.

(Edit) well, I’ve been wrong before.

Looking at the thread title, I'm not sure how to differentiate the teams

Was thinking the same. Only the @ made it clearer.

I was also thinking "Offal Offense" would have worked.

The Orioles actually have an okay offensive club (I believe their team OPS is .701) but their pitching is actually much worse than the Giants' pitching.

A pitcher, while wearing a Giants' uniform, got out of the first inning without allowing a run to score.

Posey Bomb!

I'm rooting for this Orioles' catcher to do well this season, just not against the Giants this weekend (unless, of course, an Oriole does well, then it might as well be him).

It looks like Miguel Castro attended the Cory Gearrin School of Relieving.

Dyson has been just as bad, allowing 43% of his inherited runners to score.

Moronta has allowed 44% of his inherited runners to score.

About a week ago, the Giants relievers were allowing 24% of their inherited runners to score, now it is up to 33%.

Hey, a Quality Start by Anderson!

 

[SFGRTB]

Shaun Anderson, seven strong. First time in 40 games

So wait, you're telling me that the SP DOESN'T crap the mound, and we are in the game?

Weird...

2 out of 3. I remember when that was a good thing

Pooh just removed from the rotation.

10 games was enough.

That was a miscommunication by the Giants' reporters (unfortunately)

Gotta keep his confidence up for the playoff run this year
