 Leading Off

We can’t tell if we love baseball or we hate baseball. The Orioles got pummeled by the Red Sox, but still cling to a Wild Card spot. HOLD ON TO YOUR BUTTS, ORIOLES FANS!

Remember to listen to Bird’s Eye View on Google Play Music!

The Drink of the Week has gone from drowning our sorrows to celebrating wins. Let us know what you’re up to via Twitter (@birdseyeviewbal), or on Untapped (jakee4025 and magn8606).

 

This Medical Wing

The Orioles are relatively healthy, save:

* Kevin Gausman (intercostal “tweak”)

In this “September to Remember,” we take one last trip Around the Bases:

First Base – The loss of Jose Fernandez

Second Base – Managing our emotions from the Red Sox series. “Hello Darkness, my old friend…”

Third Base – Final farewells to a few 2016 Orioles?

Home Plate – Preparing for the final week. What lays in store for us?
