Orioles at Crossroads Against White Sox | Sports News

The Orioles are spiraling, sinking to eight games under .500 after a brutal three-game skid, their 39-47 record the worst of the season — despite a recent .500 stretch that didn’t translate to consistency. Former Oriole Ben McDonald’s famous critique still rings true: they “don’t” play good baseball. Tonight, rookie Trey Gibson, struggling with high ERA and walks in June, takes the mound against the White Sox — a team that hits ground balls, where Gibson usually excels. Opposing him is Erick Fedde, who’s been tough on Baltimore, but key hitters like Pete Alonso and Gunnar Henderson have history against him. A loss tonight would make it nine games under .500 for the first time this year — a pivotal moment as the team desperately seeks the consistency that’s eluded them all season.
