The Orioles came out of a stretch against mostly bad teams by going 17-5. Their next 22 games are against better teams. Mark runs through some of the wackiness that closed out the Royals series and hopes this team can resemble the close calls of the 2012 Orioles rather than other, disappointing O's teams. It's the pitching staff that's got to get figured out if things will stay as good as the current 21-10 record. Prospect of the episode: Cade Povich.
