Baltimore Orioles: September 2015 Top Seven O’s Players
Oct 1, 2015; Baltimore, MD, USA; Baltimore Orioles third baseman Manny Machado (13) celebrates with teamates after the Orioles
This may be difficult for Baltimore Orioles fans to believe, but the month of September was the second-best month of the season in terms of wins and losses. The O’s were 14-13. The only other month with a winning record was June at 18-10, while April was 10-10. Of course the great disaster was the 11-18 month of August.
Even with a winning record for the month of September, it is a bit shocking to see that the Orioles were outscored by 31 runs over that time. Of course, 13 of those came in one game on Wednesday night as the Birds were beaten 15-2 by the Jays. Add to this a 10-1 loss to the Red Sox on the 16th, along with getting outscored in the Boston massacre last weekend by 17-0 over three games.
Even acknowledging some painful moments and games in recent weeks, we can find a top seven list of Orioles for our monthly feature.
In review, here are the top 7 players for the month of August:
- Steve Clevenger, 2. Jonathan Schoop, 3. Chris Davis, 4. Mychal Givens, 5. Brad Brach, 6. Jason Garcia, 7. Caleb Joseph.
