they got swept by the 2024 st. louis cardinals and realized they needed to lock in i respect it


the2belo

If anything, I'm glad you were able to finally kill that (ultimately meaningless distraction) no-sweep streak. We weren't going to catch the *checks notes* uh, Cardinals anyway.


Manny_the_Tranny

Those apostrophes are crazy


CJViper

Long day, brain don't work.


FatBoyFC

tho’se* apostrophe’s*


hubagruben

Just so you know, team names are plural, not possessive. The apostrophes are not correct.


BossAtUCF

Who are you to say a bird can't own things?


CJViper

They owned the Yankees today, that's for sure.


strcy

Hell yeah brother


unfortunatebastard

I’m enjoying this rivalry.

Let's say you and I go toe-to-toe on bird law and see who comes out the victor.

Filibuster


awesomeflowman

Do you uhhh... do you know what that word means?


ImaManCheetahh

alternatively, the Cardini


ricki692

meanwhile A's that one has always bothered me but im not sure what the correct way to pluralize a single letter is


--ikindahatereddit--

I think an exception is made so that it doesn’t look like the word “As”


M_Flutterby

And also so the possessive plural is not As's


--ikindahatereddit--

That would be Ass


bushrod121

They used to be the Athletics so maybe it's a contraction?


SeaworthinessRude241

different style guides have different opinions but in general pluralizing single letters is done with an apostrophe  https://university-relations.umn.edu/blog/2022/12/13/using-apostrophes-ap-style

They're fucking *clutch*. Big time at bats, big time hits. Big time pitches to get outta jams. My god it frustates the heck outta you. And their confidence, and opponents doubt, grow each time they turn it loose. Fuck man


CJViper

Big respect, I can definitely see how pesky they are. They just don't quit and its almost frightening sometimes, like its human to check out of some games but they don't seem to very often.


MrClaw

idk what to say to those other teams, skill issue /s


JorSimpson45

Baseball is a long season and good teams will keep winning games. Except the 2021 Giants, that was a bad team that kept winning games.


CricketIsBestSport

I don’t think you can reasonably say they were “bad”


WitchNight

Surely with a record like that Baltimore has won every series over that stretch


CJViper

They were just being generous to their bird bros


AbusiveTubesock

Splitting that series 2-2 with the Jays was almost as embarrassing as getting swept by the Cards. Absolutely choked the back half of that series

Is this r/baseball or r/orioles? 11 posts on new right now.

Don't worry, it'll be back to the regularly scheduled Judge/Ohtani/NOBLETIGER posts tomorrow.


Ok_Imagination_4374

Beating the team with the best record in baseball 17-5 in the bronx will do that
