Catch-Up (again)... July, August, September and October Games Up and Coming

That was a huge hiatus on my behalf. But now it's back to business and there's a lot to discuss.

First, I'll start out posting the July results of the Orioles (and hopefully the rest of this week will be caught up):

Seattle Mariners (Away)
Game 1 LOST 5-2
Game 2 LOST 12-6
Game 3 LOST 9-4

Los Angeles Dodgers (Away)
Game 1 LOST 7-5
Game 2 WON 4-1
Game 3 WON 6-4

Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (Home)
Game 1 LOST 9-5
Game 2 WON 3-2
Game 3 WON 4-2

Tampa Bay Rays (Away)
Game 1 WON 4-3
Game 2 WON 2-1
Game 3 LOST 5-2

New York Yankees (Away)
Game 1 LOST 2-1
Game 2 LOST 7-1
Game 3 LOST 5-0
Game 4 WON 4-1

Cleveland Indians (Home)
Game 1 WON 5-1
Game 2 WON 5-2
Game 3 WON 5-3
(the very fact that the Orioles didn't make it far into the pennant championship, but they were able to sweep the very team that made it into the final round says a lot. Although the Indians lost.)

Colorado Rockies (Home)
Game 1 WON 3-2
Game 2 LOST 6-3
Game 3 LOST 3-1

Minnesota Twins (Make up of 5/9/16 postponed game // Away)
LOST 6-2

Toronto Blue Jays (Away)
Game 1 LOST 6-5
Game 2 LOST 9-1
Game 3 WON 6-2

Ah, baseball never seizes to amaze me with scheduling. Going from Minnesota to Canada within one day? Impressive.

Major congratulations to the Chicago Cubs on winning the World Series! Gotta give it to the under dog. Taking a look at where the Orioles stand now, they stand at number nine on the list of longest world series droughts. In front of are the Indians, Rangers, Astros, Brewers, Padres, Nationals, Mariners and Pirates. It's a shame because some have had World Series appearances since the year they last won, but are still waiting to get the win.
