O's fall to Yank's look to bounce back against the Rays!

The Baltimore Orioles were unable to complete the sweet against the Yankees on Wednesday as Zach Britton gave up 7 runs in 2.2 innings. The O's would end up losing 12-3 but still took the series in New York.

Now the O's will travel to Tampa Bay to take on the Rays for 3 games. Tommy Hunter will take on Matt Moore in the first game of the series. The O's will need Nick Markakis to thrive in the leadoff spot.

The O's and Rays are tied at the moment with a 55-50 record. In game 2 the O's will have Wei-Yin Chen oppose Jeremy Hellickson. The O's will have Miguel Gonzalez versus the Rays ace David Price.

The O's need to jump on both starts for games 1 and 2 to avoid having to win a game against Price for a series win. This is a big series for the O's as a playoff spot is still up for grabs for the Birds!
