Orioles News
Gunnar Henderson's decisive homer lifted the Orioles to a narrow 2-1 victory over the White Sox, providing a much-needed boost for a team struggling to find its footing with a 4-6 record. Despite this win, the mood remains lukewarm as the O's continue to grapple with an eight-run deficit over the past week and the unsettling fact that star Adley Rutschman is not getting the playing time he deserves. Compounding these challenges, the roster is further shaken by injuries, including the recent activation of newcomer Nick Raquet as the team placed Eflin on the 60-day IL after elbow discomfort. The urgency in the clubhouse is palpable, as fans wonder if this team can reclaim momentum and at least flirt with a .500 record in April.
